A warm welcome to The Psychotherapy Clinic. I am Emma McDonald, Psychotherapist and Clinical Lead.

If you have found our page it usually means you, or someone you love and care for is struggling. We are here for you and you dont have to navigate this time alone. Our service is a private therapy service supporting adults experiencing depression, anxiety and trauma. We have a fantastic team of specialists that provide psychological treatment services with our aim being to help you to relieve emotional pain, so that you can live the life you want to lead.

Whatever has brought you here, you don't have to face it alone. We're here to listen, understand and help you find a way forward.

"Thank you for the support, I feel so much better, I have gained my life back. I am in control now, rather than my feelings controlling me, I feel free and it’s a great feeling"

"I am tearful writing this, I am so grateful to you and the team. I've gone from living over a year in my house, afraid to go out. I had no life, I was depressed and suicidal. I now go out with my friends, I have a job, all things I never thought would be in my reach”

"This has changed my life, I was apprehensive about seeking support, I’m so very glad I made contact with The Psychotherapy Clinic. My therapist was kind, warm and welcoming. My therapist gave me practical tools, to take away from the sessions to help me beat my anxiety, I have now beat this. Thank you so much for your help and support”

EMDR Intensive Treatment

EMDR Intensive offers focused trauma therapy over a concentrated period of time, rather than weekly sessions. It can be particularly helpful if you want to work deeply on a specific traumatic experience. Sessions are structured to allow more time for processing and therapeutic work, while still being paced around your needs.

The aim is to help you process what has happened, reduce distress and move towards feeling more confident and able to move forward.

Phobia Intensive Treatment

Our phobia intensive treatment is personalised around you and the phobia you want to overcome. We can use CBT, EMDR, or a combination of approaches, depending on what will best support your goals. Intensive sessions allow us to focus closely on your phobia and work through it in a concentrated period of time.

The aim is to help you feel more confident and regain the freedom to do the things your phobia has been holding you back from.
