Therapies & Treatments
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
ACT helps you relate differently to difficult thoughts and feelings, so they no longer run your life. Through mindfulness, values clarification, and committed action, ACT supports you in making choices that align with what matters most to you—even when pain or fear is present.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
EMDR Therapy
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a trauma-focused therapy that helps your brain reprocess painful memories so they feel less distressing and overwhelming. It supports your natural healing system, reducing symptoms like anxiety, nightmares, and emotional reactivity while building a greater sense of safety and stability.

TESTIMONIALS
What Our Clients Say
“Emily Bushell has a very distinct and innate gift for helping others on their healing journey. After many, many years of therapy, conventional and nonconventional, I have yet to find a therapist as gentle, accepting, loving, compassionate and professional toward her clients as Emily is. She is deeply committed to and skilled in EMDR and her sessions have helped me immensely. Not only is she a great guide, who's helped me explore some of the most painful and terrifying parts of my life, she's empowered me to let my own body and intuition guide me in our EMDR sessions, which has been both healing and liberating. She is a gift to this world and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking support on their healing journey. " AB
"A very welcoming and comfy environment for anyone going to therapy for the first time. Highly recommend EMDR services!!" JB
