We offer online, in-person and phone appointments.
The project is a partnership of two Counsellors and Psychotherapists:

- Couple Counselling
- Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Equine Facilitated EMDR
- One-to-one and group supervision for trainee and qualified therapists
- One-to-one and group Dramatherapy
- Individual and group Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy (EFP)
We specialise in short-term and long-term contracts, and our services are open to all adult women.
We have extensive experience in working with a variety of issues including: Autism, anger, abuse, anxiety issues, addiction(s), depression, PTSD, self-harm, trauma, child related issues, cultural issues, eating disorders, general issues, identity issues, sexual identity and spirituality.
We abide by BACP Ethical Framework and are members of BACP, NCS and HCPC. The Practice actively promotes an anti-discriminatory and diversity sensitive approach in supporting clients across communities and abilities .

Testimonials
It is within the herd that I have finally found my voice.....long forgotten but not lost.
Thank you, Cleo and Sultana for allowing me to be part of the herd.
Thanks to my therapist I am now more assertive and clearer of my needs and therefore more able to live a life that I want rather than what people want.
Although at the beginning I was very scared of horses, today I realised that the biggest fear was that I could be as powerful as the horses.
We are recognized with AVIVA, BUPA and many more insurance companies. Call us to check if you are covered. We are also accredited members of BACP and NCS.
