My name is Naomi and I am the manager at Fresh Thoughts Counselling. It brings me such pride to write a bio about something I am so passionate about because  I began my counselling journey back in 2011 and I haven't looked back. Prior to this I worked at a SEN School teaching Speech & Language Therapy; this work gave me a solid foundation on the importance of communication and expression of the 'self'. 

 

I am an Accredited Psychotherapist, Associate Psychologist and Clinical Supervisor, working with adults, young people, children, couples, families, groups, EAPs and businesses.  I have a wealth of experience working with a variety of presenting issues e.g. bereavement, anxiety, depression, stress, relationship difficulties, PTSD, trauma, chronic pain and eating disorders, to name a few. However, we can also work together if you aren't sure what your problems are, but you feel a warm, professional, non-judgemental and confidential space is what you need.

The process is about tailoring the sessions to your individual need and ensuring we work with the whole of you! This means I will be curious about all biological, psychological and social aspects of your life and how they affect your life.

​

My work as a Clinical Supervisor means I offer; professional & ethical support to other therapists to ensure client work is safe, for both client and therapist. I offer this to qualified therapists and budding students.
