Julie Taksh

I offer flexible appointments on weekdays, early evenings and Saturday mornings.

I am a compassionate and highly experienced Senior Accredited Counsellor, Clinical Supervisor, EMDR Consultant, Accredited Cognitive Behaviour Therapist (CBT) and Interpersonal Psychotherapist.

I have over 27 years of experience working in a therapeutic capacity, which includes a specialist NHS service and private practice. Over these years my experience and qualifications have allowed me to develop the diverse skills required to work with a wide range of psychological issues and high levels of complexity. 

I have a particular interest in working with Complex Trauma, Depression, Anxiety, Panic, OCD, Worry, Bereavement, and all types of Stress. 

I continue to train and supervise Fellowship Psychiatrists in the NHS. I also offer private supervision to Counsellors, EMDR/CBT therapists and other helping professionals. 

My qualifications are:

• Masters Degree in Counselling (with distinction)

• BSc (Hons) Cognitive Behavioural Therapy

• EMDR-UK Consultant / Supervisor

• IPT-UK Practitioner

• PG Certificate in Supervision (equivalent to masters level)

I offer in-person appointments at my Durham premises and remote video or telephone appointments if preferred.

Choosing the right therapy may not be easy and making the first contact with a therapist can sometimes be daunting. My clients often comment that they find my manner warm and approachable, so if you wish to contact me directly I will be happy to offer a free 10-15 minute call to explain more about the therapies I can offer for your difficulties, or you can email me with any queries if you prefer.

I accept referrals from individuals, organisations, insurance companies, solicitors, trainees, supervisees, and other professionals.

Your sessions will last between 50-60 minutes and may be weekly to start depending on your needs and budget. In our first session, we will talk about what has brought you to therapy, what you want help with, and how therapy works.

I am highly qualified in a range of therapies, so I can also advise you on the best therapy to suit your needs.

I hope to be able to put you at ease and will offer you space to discuss any questions or anxieties you may have about the process. At the end of the session, you can decide if you want to book any further appointments.  

I offer flexible appointments on week days, some early evenings and Saturday mornings.
