Dr. Nicola Pitman , HCPC

About me

I am a Clinical Psychologist and EMDR therapist. I have worked with clients with a range of difficulties which has included long term health conditions, addictions, trauma and work/life balance.

I work using a collaborative and flexible approach to support the unique aspects of individuals needs. I adopt an integrative approach to understanding and responding to each client, drawing on evidence-based practice. I work with individuals to support their own understanding of themselves and work towards the goals that are meaningful to them.

I place a lot of value on the therapeutic relationship and believe it is important for you to find a good 'fit'. Please do get in touch to arrange an initial phone conversation where I can explain what I offer and you have the opportunity to ask questions about the therapy approach.
