Marta is a psychologist and an integrative psychotherapist: she has been working in the field of mental health for over 12 years in both private and public sectors. She provides psychotherapeutic support to individuals and families.
Marta provides individual therapy for those who struggle to manage life's challenges, want to improve their relationships, discard thoughts and behaviours that no longer work for them, face a difficult period and want to find purpose in life. She provides her clients with a safe and creative space in which they can explore their thoughts, feelings and behaviour, and together, Mart and her clients can think about a useful way forward.
In her approach, Marta integrates psychodynamic therapy, attachment theory, systemic approach as well as CBT and gestalt techniques. Integrative therapy is a progressive form of psychotherapy that combines different therapeutic tools and approaches to fit the needs of the individual client. By combining elements drawn from different schools of psychological theory and research, integrative psychotherapy becomes a more flexible and inclusive approach to treatment than more traditional, singular forms of psychotherapy.

The focus of her approach is to understand the person's emotional sufferance and difficulties in order to promote inner wellbeing and growth. Marta uses a holistic approach where she looks at past and present experiences to gather a sense of each client and find the best way to help them. The main aim of Marta's job is to help individuals who are experiencing emotional and psychological distress and difficulties to understand their problems and make appropriate changes to their lives.

Nicola is a psychodynamic psychotherapist and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) therapist.
Nicola believes in giving clients time and space to approach therapy in the way they need to approach it. She finds this is the best way to develop a therapeutic relationship that allows feelings to be truly explored and evaluated.
As a psychodynamic psychotherapist, Nicola knows that no two people experience the world or relationships in the same way, and her sessions look at how clients’ current emotions and thoughts are impacted by their early experiences, relationships, and cultural and social backgrounds.
She can integrate EMDR therapy into any work on traumatic memories and experiences.

A BACP registered member, qualified to an advanced-level in psychodynamic psychotherapy. Kerry offers a confidential and supportive space for both short and long-term therapy.
Kerry believes essential to the success of any therapeutic journey is acceptance and the ability to feel safe in the presence of another. The aim of psychodynamic therapy with Kerry is to support the client in a safe exploration of their past and present experiences.
Kerry’s warm collaborative approach encourages the client to discuss openly their thoughts and feelings, thereby enabling the client to feel heard and accepted perhaps for the first time.
Kerry recognises that painful memories are often buried deeply within the unconscious, frequently manifesting in unhelpful patterns of behaviour and ways of relating to others. Additionally these experiences carry intense feelings and emotions that, if left unaddressed can contribute to the development of physical and emotional ill health.
Drawing upon her experience of working within the mental health and charitable sectors, Kerry offers support to clients experiencing difficulty and difference in the following areas; addiction, abuse, neuro diversity, disability, trauma, anxiety, depression, personality disturbances, relationship difficulties, emotional difficulties, abandonment, loss, guilt and shame.

Kate qualified as an integrative psychotherapist and couples therapist over ten years ago. She then completed further training in couples work and psychosexual therapy and now enjoys seeing a mixture of individuals and couples with both sexual and non-sexual issues. Alongside over a decade’s experience working with a full range of issues, Kate has particular expertise in relationship issues, gender dysphoria, sexual problems, family issues and abuse.
In therapy, the most important thing is the relationship between client and therapist. Warm and approachable, Kate is far from the stereotype of the silent therapist. Clients often comment on how quickly they feel at ease talking to her. She creates a space where clients can be themselves, to be heard and seen in a way that is rare. Kate tends to work long-term with her clients, enabling deep and lasting change.
Kate joined One Therapy in 2010, and in 2017 was made Head of Therapy Services. In this role she ensures One Therapy provides a high quality service and supports our growing team of therapists.

Over the years that I’ve worked as a therapist, I’ve been asked numerous times by prospective clients, “How does counselling help?” And I’ve yet to come up with a satisfactory answer. Not because I’m in any doubt that it helps, but because the ‘how’ bit is so hard to articulate concisely…
Read moreOne of the most common worries I hear expressed by people starting counselling is that they won’t know what to talk about. Some people think their problems aren’t significant enough. Others fear they have too much to say, that they might overwhelm the therapist…
