Diomidis Psomas, HCPC registered Counselling Psychologist
Don’t let the past, that set up some familiar but problematic patterns for you, dictate your present and your future. As human beings, we go for the familiar, even when it is not good for us anymore. Let’s look at that, address it and look into the present and the future differently.
I have been practising since 1997 in a variety of settings, including the military, and since 2004 in the NHS. I have in total over 25 years of experience working as a Psychologist and over 19 of these working in different mental health services in the NHS. I have had supervision training in Manchester University and have been supervising trainee Clinical and Counselling Psychologists for over 12 years now. For over 10 years I have been teaching Schema Therapy, as a guest speaker, on the doctorate of Clinical and Counselling Psychology at Manchester University.
I am an integrative therapist, which means that I use the therapeutic approach most suitable to the individual and their needs, as there is no ‘one size fits all’ since we are all different. I mainly offer approaches like the following; Schema Therapy, Person-Centred, Cognitive-Behavioural and EMDR. However, and in any case, the psychological approach needs to make sense and address your needs and not the other way round.
I am a member of the British Psychological Society’s Division of Counselling Psychology and I am registered with the Health & Care Professions Council (Registration Number: PYL21011). I abide by the BPS’s and the HCPC’s Ethical Code of Conduct.
