Dr Sylvia Davies

Professional Profile

My name is Sylvia and I am a fully qualified Chartered Counselling Psychologist.  I am also an accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist and an accredited EMDR therapist working with Think CBT.

I work in various clinics, but currently all therapy is online due to COVID restrictions. I also provide clinical supervision in either CBT and/or EMDR as I am an accredited supervisor.

I hold a variety of qualifications. My background is as a registered mental health nurse (RMN) and I then trained in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) but I recently qualified as a Counselling Psychologist having passed my Doctorate.

I have over 20 years’ experience in the mental health field working in various sectors including inpatient, community and forensic, which means that I can draw from a wide range of knowledge to help the specific needs of clients.

I have worked in the NHS and private practice for many years and have experience with most mental health disorders including PTSD, OCD, anxiety and depression. I have specific training to treat Tourette’s Disorder (tics) and I am on the register with Tourette’s Action.

The Doctorate in Counselling Psychology involved submitting a thesis where I used a group EMDR approach to treat Military Veterans with PTSD.

All the therapies I offer are evidence based and I work holistically with a client to work out what is more appropriate for them.
