Counsellor/Therapist, Prof. Adv. Dip. PC, Dip. Hyp, Dip. CBT/REBT, Dip. EFT, Dip. SBA, MA Psychosynthesis Psychology
I am a Psycho-Spiritual Counsellor offering bespoke services using a combination of holistic and complementary intervention to help and support your personality disorder by reviewing your thoughts and thinking patterns and feelings about yourself, others or how they relate to other as well as what other people think. The evaluation includes reviewing your judgement, personality trait and their unhealthy functionality.
A number of our Clinical Psychologists are experienced in helping people effectively live with Personality Disorders. One senior psychologist has extensive experience working with people who have had contact with the criminal justice system and helps people living with complex Personality conditions. We draw from evidence based therapies including; CBT, ACT, CFT, SFT, DBT, EMDR, systemic, narrative, psychodynamic and others.
A 'personality disorder' is a dreaded diagnosis for many. Partly due to the stigma it attracts, but also because this umbrella term encompasses a varied set of personal and interpersonal difficulties that are persistent (are not confined in set period of a person's life), problematic and pervasive (affect more than one area of life).
I have an extensive experience working with individuals who either meet criteria for a personality disorder to experience some personality disorder traits. If you think this might be the case for you and would like to explore whether psychotherapy might be right for you, please get in touch.

As is the case with many psychological difficulties the first essential step is a rigorous diagnosis. In order to be diagnosed with a personality disorder a spread of personality traits must be disordered above the diagnostic threshold. The world standard in the diagnosis of personality disorder is the International Personality Disorder Examination (IPDE) published by the World Health Organization. If a diagnosis is made there are treatments available that can be successful, but there are no easy fixes.
