ACCESSING MY SERVICES REMOTELY

Update: I'm offering video sessions for new and existing clients to comply with COVID-19 physical distancing and home-working recommendations.

I also offer video via internet for all my therapy sessions.

During the Covid-19 pandemic there has been a rapid increase in the use of video communication tools for personal and professional communication. I have been using Zoom and Skype to conduct my sessions and have even been able to adapt EMDR to be delivered remotely following guidelines developed by the EMDR Academy in the UK. I have found video-based therapy to be just as effective as face-to-face sessions. My impression has been confirmed by other therapists as well as in the research literature. For example, see Backhaus et al.

I am working remotely during the pandemic, but will continue to do so beyond this time in order to improve access for clients based in other parts of the country or those who might find it difficult to attend traditional office-based services.

I welcome clients from all over the UK and internationally (for example, I have had a lot of experience with ex-pats living overseas).
