Serena Walker
Counselling Psychologist
- It is my belief that every person has the power within to make the changes they want to see in their lives. It is just that sometimes they need help finding that power. My goal is to assist you to find your own way to living the life as rich and full in meaning as you want, whilst acknowledging that there are going to be times when this is very difficult and times of pain and suffering. I believe therapy can be a little like this also, sometimes it is vibrant, rich and full and at other times charged with uncomfortable feelings, such as sadness, guilt, anxiety, anger, loneliness and helplessness.
- I am experienced in working with clients who have a history of trauma and abuse and or are having issues with depression, anxiety, worry, posttraumatic stress disorder, phobias, or relationship difficulties including fertility concerns. I work with adults and couples using a range of therapeutic modalities including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Narrative and Play Therapy. I don’t use one modality specifically for any given client, rather we will work out what works best for you and take it from there
