Phobias

Valerie has extensive work experience with a global company which is a public service provider. Its mission is to deliver services which positively transform people’s lives and their communities.

My aim is to help my clients to feel better fast using the powerful and effective combination of psychotherapeutic techniques that are incorporated in the Human Givens approach.

I am a fully qualified Human Givens psychotherapist who sees clients at my private practice at home. When appropriate, I can do home visits and walk and talk or online sessions.

I run face-to-face sessions in Yorkshire including in Leeds, York, Hull and Bridlington. I run online sessions wherever you are in the world. 

I have a deep understanding about mental health and wellbeing, and experience of working with people in tnany different situations in their lives. Clients feed back that I am calm, warm and approachable - that they feel accepted and comfortable being themselves. The approach aims to help people to overcome problems that might at first feel overwhelming, breaking down complex issues into practical, manageable steps. My goal is to build hope, motivation and a clear focus to achieve the positive changes that matter to you. 

I graduated in medicine at the University of Edinburgh in 1985 and have enjoyed working as a doctor in a wide variety of medical settings.

Experienced with addictions, eating disorders, and trauma.  I have a private practice in a dedicated, multi-disciplinary holistic clinic for clients in Leinster or Munster.

The way that a human life may unfold is bound to bring challenges, and these may become stressful or overwhelming at times for almost anyone.

Current CRB disclosure certificate. I see clients in my home. Sessions available weekends and early evening.

I work with organisations as well as individuals in managing stress and developing healthy, motivated staff.

Having been in private practice as a Human Givens therapist for the last four years, I have been honoured to witness the dramatic changes that this therapy has been able to provide.
