Dr Gynette Kershaw
I am a Clinical Psychologist with more than ten years of experience in NHS, public, military, private and charity domains.
My aim is to provide effective, evidence-based psychological therapy to individuals and couples.
In my private practice, I work with adults experiencing a range of mental health difficulties including
-
Depression and Anxiety
-
Trauma
-
Adjustment Difficulties
-
Eating Disorders
-
Addictions
-
Relationship Difficulties
-
Grief
I also have an interest in health psychology, at the interface between a person's physical and mental health. This can include adjusting to changed physical capabilities, or living with medically unexplained symptoms.
To provide tailored therapeutic interventions, I draw upon a range of therapy modalities, being proficient in the following:
-
Acceptance Commitment Therapy
-
Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprogramming Therapy (EMDR)
-
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
-
Person-Centred Therapy
-
Schema Therapy
-
Family Based Therapy
-
Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy
The framework I use for Couples is EFCT, a very well researched and effective therapy based on attachment between people.
