Doris Mpemba Fimpa

I offer a number of different therapeutic approaches. I am an advanced cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) therapist, person-centred therapy (PCT) therapist, eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) practitioner and mindfulness teacher practitioner, and also offer rewind techniques and hypnotherapy.

I offer counselling for children and young people, adults and couples regarding any issues that are affecting them. This includes issues such as depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), lack of confidence, low self-esteem, personal development and more.

I have worked in mental health for many years. I am a specialist in bereavement and loss as well as psychological issues following road traffic accidents.

After working for 20 years with children and young people, and working with adults since 2010, I understand our beginnings; everyone is different, with a different story. I am a non-judgemental, friendly person.

I base my therapy on a client’s mood at the time so I will not push you to go any faster and I accept my clients as they are. I accept everyone no matter what they are saying. I will help you explore the core of your problems and working from that, we can to make a quick recovery at your own pace. I will provide you with the tools and resources that you need to live better.
