WELCOME TO EAST KENT THERAPY

Hello, If you have emotional and personal difficulties in your life and in your relationships, i can help you with a trauma-focused approach. 

Utilising the benefits of Internal Family Systems' therapy, you can make great progress with your mental and physical health. IFS can help with: trauma, depression, anxiety, OCD, addictions, eating disorders, bipolar disorders, personality problems, autism, and for people who may be in abusive situations or find themselves stuck in patterns of sabotaging behaviour.

 When you embody more Self, and begin to love all aspects of your self and body, your extreme 'protective parts' of your nervous system calm down, they become more playful, safer, freer, more open, joyful. You become safe. You can trace the history of your problems with clear understanding. 

 I integrate IFS with trauma therapy (EMDR) with somatic processes and meditation. This includes enaging with your inner child, resolving emotions like shame and fear; and unburdening from integenerational family trauma. 

Integrating modern trauma-informed approaches to therapy

Hi, I'm Johnnie Taylor. Based in the UK, I I have worked in the NHS for over 20 years in liaison psychiatry and A&E departments and the general hospital.

 I am registered with the British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy;  and the UK Nursing and Midwifery Council. I am trained in Internal Family Systems’ (IFS) therapy; and I have completed the IFS certification with the IFS Institute; I am also an EMDR Association registered therapist. 

I integrate Internal Family Systems’ and trauma (EMDR) therapies, with a somatic focus, to help you with relationship issues going back to experiences of neglect, abuse and abandonment. Often these early childhood problems show up as complex adult 'symptoms' that seem difficult to find and talk about.

IFS Practitioner Daria says: 'Johnnie's calm, compassionate energy and respectful approach creates a safe environment for me compared to other therapists i've worked with. His gentle method allowed me to set the pace and focus of our work, helping me transition from feeling worried and overwhelmed to feeling more self-aware and self-compassionate after just a few sessions.

 'He holds a rare combination of a genuine drive to help and deep knowledge in both IFS and EMDR. I wholeheartedly recommend Johnnie to anyone seeking a professional and dedicated therapist.'
