Red Thread Therapy

Embodied and Creative Pyschotherapy

I’m Naomi, a Creative and Embodied Psychotherapist (HCPC registered, MA & PG Dip).I support people in strengthening their sense of agency and rediscovering joy, meaning and vitality in their lives. Supporting this process is a deep privilege.

The Red Thread symbolises intuition, connection and finding one’s way back to oneself.Red Thread Therapy is rooted in my belief that by listening to our bodies and our creativity, we can find the resources that we need. In my practice, I suggest tools and strategies to support, but I don’t offer answers or quick fixes. Instead, I hold a warm, attuned space and offer feedback, creative exercises, and time for you to slow down and reconnect with your own meaning, agency, and direction.I often work with professional athletes and performing artists. Particularly with trauma recovery, eating disorders, and supporting reconnection with creativity.My approach is psychodynamic at its core; I work integratively with methodologies including talking therapy, somatic practices and Creative Arts Therapy.
