I am a UKCP registered systemic family and couples psychotherapist with 18 years of NHS experience. Additionally, I provide therapist education, supervision, and training. My work emphasizes understanding, connection, and growth for all clients.

Systemic psychotherapy encourages families to communicate openly and explore difficult emotions safely. By appreciating each other’s perspectives, families can identify needs, leverage strengths, and make meaningful changes. This process improves relationships and overall life satisfaction.

Ann Overton Psychotherapist Huddersfield: Focus on Couples

I specialize in helping couples and adult individuals resolve relationship difficulties. My couples work follows Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). EFT provides a collaborative and structured approach, usually lasting 8–20 sessions, though the number adapts to your needs.

First, EFT creates safety for couples to identify and track negative cycles. Then, it explores the underlying emotions driving these patterns. Finally, it helps couples transform negative interactions into safe emotional connections. Research shows EFT effectively strengthens relationships and improves emotional intimacy. More details are available at the British EFT website.

Individual Therapy and Personal Growth

I also provide therapy for individuals seeking personal growth or support with relationship challenges. Sessions focus on understanding emotional patterns, improving communication skills, and fostering self-awareness. Moreover, therapy emphasizes practical strategies to create meaningful changes in everyday life.

LGBTQ+ Inclusive Practice

I celebrate diversity and provide an LGBTQ+ friendly environment. Clients can explore their feelings without judgment. I adapt therapy to each individual’s needs, ensuring a safe and respectful space. In addition, I offer guidance on managing complex relationship dynamics and personal challenges.
