Dr Gemima Fitzgerald BSc (Hons), D.Clin.Psych., C.Psychol. I am a Clinical Psychologist and a Chartered Psychologist registered with the British Psychological Society. I am registered as a Clinical Psychologist with the Health and Professions Council (HCPC), which is a regulator set up to protect the public. I have a wealth of experience working with a range of psychological and mental health issues. I recognise that at times, many people feel that their emotional well-being is suffering and that this can feel frightening and isolating. At these times, people often feel that no one can understand how they are feeling and often they do not know where they can go for help. I am skilled in helping people to understand themselves and the reasons they are finding things so difficult. I am passionate about helping people to overcome difficulties but also to empower individuals to thrive and flourish.
Some of the difficulties people come to see me about are depression, anxiety, difficulties relating to stress, trauma/PTSD, bereavement and OCD. I am an integrative psychologist which means that I use a range of evidence-based therapies to help my clients find new ways of coping that offer hope for the future. Some of the therapies I use are Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy and Compassion Focussed Therapy. I am also qualified as an EMDR therapist. EMDR is a therapy for people who have experienced trauma or traumas. It is recommended in the NICE Guidelines as being one of the gold standard treatments for trauma. I believe that for therapy to be effective it is really important to build a trusting, warm, and empathic therapeutic relationship with clients. As well as working in hospices, mental health services, managing bereavement services, and with homeless communities, I also work as a Clinical Psychologist in a Harley Street Clinic. I run courses on stress management and resilience building. Feedback from my clients has been exceptional.
I am happy to offer a free 15 minute telephone consultation if you would like to discuss how I might be able to help you.
