Hi, I am Martina, I am born and bread in Czech but have spent most of my adult life living and working in the UK. For the past 25 years I have worked as a counsellor and psychotherapist with a wide range of clients (including children/young people and adults). When not at work I enjoy time with my family and friends in the outdoors - hiking, cycling, skiing in winter, mushroom picking and camping. I also enjoy singing and guitar playing, going to theatre and gigs, and am trying to learn photography. When at home, I enjoy immersing myself in interior design and gardening.
During your life journey you may find yourself overwhelmed with stress and anxiety, feel weighed down by problems or painful trauma memories, have to deal with unexpected loss or crisis... Or perhaps you may want to focus on improving your relationships, changing unhelpful behavioural patterns, increasing your self esteem and confidence and overall personal growth. If you are looking for a professional therapist to support you in this process , I can help. I am an experienced relational integrative psychotherapist, providing individual counselling/psychotherapy, outdoor psychotherapy, EMDR trauma therapy, mindfulness and creative arts therapies. I also provide clinical supervision for other practitioners. Reaching out to a therapist in time of difficulty or crisis can be both a daunting task and a courageous step. I can offer you a sensitive, safe and confidential place in which to explore your issues and ways towards achieving your desired change. You are welcome to contact me for an initial phone call followed by an assessment consultation.
