Julie Taksh - Psychotherapy

I am a compassionate and experienced Counsellor, Clinical Supervisor, Cognitive Behaviour Psychotherapist and EMDR Practitioner, with experience in the NHS, voluntary and private sectors. I originally trained as a Registered Mental Health Nurse and I have over 22 years’ experience of working in a therapeutic capacity. This experience has allowed me to develop the diverse skills required to work with a wide range of psychological issues. I now specialise in adult mental health and have a particular interest in working with PTSD, Anxiety issues, Depression and some neurological problems.

I am an accredited practitioner in all three therapies I deliver with the UK's leading professional bodies (BABCP, BACP and EMDR Europe & Ireland). This accreditation status represents a higher level of quality assurance than that afforded by a membership; as accredited therapists have demonstrated rigorous standards of excellence in their practice to prove they are competent and experienced practitioners.

How I work

The focus of my work is client centred and a trusting therapeutic relationship is paramount for any talking therapy to be successful. In order to facilitate change I draw upon leading edge techniques and protocols for the treatment of a wide range of psychological and behavioural problems. My approach is based on best practice, published research and guidance issued by the National Institute of Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE).
