M : 07716990297About Me
Hello there! My name is Dr Lynda Foulder-Hughes. I am a Psychotherapist who works holistically and integratively. My original (starting point) training was as an Occupational Therapist (OT), qualifying back in 1991. I retired as an OT in 2019 in order to focus solely on my Psychotherapy practice. I believe that there is no difficulty in life that cannot be overcome! I provide a compassionate and holistic approach to help people recover from past traumas and current emotional difficulties- so that they can move into the future in a positive and hopeful way. Achieving post-traumatic growth (PTG) following treatment, is an important part of my approach. I am a highly empathetic, experienced, and educated professional, who genuinely cares. I have over 30 years of successful practice experience with adults, young people and children in hospitals, clinics, social care, voluntary organisations, education settings and television. I see people either face to face at my tranquil practice in Kingsbury Episcopi in South Somerset, or online via Zoom. I offer a holistic and integrative psychotherapy service. Each person I work with is unique, and so is their therapy! Therefore, there is no such thing as a "one size fits all" approach. I am trained in a wide range of different psychological modalities, several of which are also core approaches recommended by NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence): Person Centred/ Humanistic Counselling, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Flash Technique (FT), Rewind trauma therapy, Solution Focused Therapy (SFT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Meridian Psychotherapy , Mindfulness, Meditation, Shadow work, Inner Child work and Transpersonal Psychology (Metaphysical Sciences). I receive regular monthly supervision from a fellow experienced supervisor, who is also educated to PhD level. I have won several awards for my work. In 2015 I was named as one of Newsweek Magazine's "21st Century Professionals" across two editions!
