Exeter, England therapist: Sudeva Hawkes, registered psychotherapist
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Sudeva Hawkes

Registered Psychotherapist, Registered Clinical Counsellor, B.Couns., MNCPS Accred. , PACFA Reg.
I work with people from every walk of life, from successful business managers to struggling students, helping them to navigate stress, anxiety, and life’s many challenges. My approach is friendly, humorous and empathetic. Online I see clients from all over the world- especially Australia, the UK and Ireland. I have developed my therapeutic style and skills over many years. I am especially well versed in shock and developmental trauma, relationship and family therapy, workplace stress and anxiety . My trauma work is based on releasing painful held memories through Somatic Experiencing. The good news is that you don't have to delve into old wounds or relive past events. Trauma is held in the body and it is through the body that it can be released. My wife Adima is also available for spiritual therapy and as a Gene Keys Guide and can be contacted through our website. The trust clients have displayed in me over the years has deepened my compassion and my insight and I am easy to connect with face to face or online. My aim is to present you with the tools you need to heal the things that trouble you and to connect more deeply within yourself; also to grow and develop an intimate, conscious and nourishing connection with the world around you. People often tell me they can never switch off the internal chatter and noise in their minds. That's a disturbance you don't have to live with. We can open the space for peace, simplicity and the freedom to relax when you need to. My way of working is singular, joining as it does clinical experience and the healing of trauma with meditation and mindfulness. I combine them to give my clients something special, the opportunity to find their own sense of direction in the company of a supportive ally, eliminating that which is old and no longer relevant while developing new strengths. My wish is to serve and support you in your authentic flowering, rather than to 'fix' you according to the expectations of conventional therapy. I appreciate connecting with people from every kind of background. I grew up in London and have travelled to many places in Europe, India and Asia. Until recently, I lived and worked in Australia and now I have returned to create a home and a practice in Devon the UK. In addition to Somatic Experiencing, I am inspired and fascinated by Internal Family Systems therapy and have recently embarked on a study of the Gene Keys. I look forward to working with you.

London, England therapist: Dr Paul Garden, psychologist
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Dr Paul Garden

Psychologist, Doctorate in Psychology, DPsych, MSc with Distinction, BSc First Class Honours.
I am a registered Health Care Professions Council (HCPC) Practitioner Psychologist, and am on the British Psychological Society Register of Applied Psychology Practice Supervisors (RAPPS). I have been in Private Practice in Central London for nine years. Before spending ten years in full-time study and training in London universities and NHS Trusts to qualify as a psychologist, I spent a decade travelling, mainly around Asia, studying Eastern psychology and philosophy. Thus, I have a rich lens of psychological perspectives through which I understand and work with the mind. Psychoanalytic thinking underpins my approach to therapy, which is always tailored to suit the unique needs of each person. The therapeutic work then adapts as those needs change over time. You will find my approach to be naturally compassionate, and non-judgemental.

London, England therapist: Ulrike Nau-Debor, psychologist
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Ulrike Nau-Debor

Psychologist, CPsychol, AFBPsS, HCPC registered
I love working with people who have a yearning to become unapologetically themselves, want to listen to their inner voice and be able to let go of the trauma that seems to keep them stuck in the past. There is nothing better than seeing my clients create the lives they want to live and be who they really are. If you are curious to find out, if we are a good fit or if you have any questions about how I work, contact me for a complimentary conversation. I like to take some time first for both of us to get to know each other a bit so we can freely decide if we want to work together. Just drop me an email and I look forward to meeting you.

Sandbach, England therapist: Lavinia May, counselor/therapist
Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT)

Lavinia May

Counsellor/Therapist, MNCPS (Acc.)
Hi, I’m Lavinia, If you and your partner keep having the same argument, feel stuck in old patterns, or notice anxiety creeping into your relationship, you're not alone. I work with both couples and individuals, with a particular focus on relationship work. My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical: we'll make sense of what's happening between you and build small, realistic changes that help your relationship feel easier and more connected. I draw on evidence-based tools (CBT/ACT, attachment informed work, emotion-focused & systemic ideas for couples) without the jargon. Sessions feel like real conversations with structure: we set goals together, track what’s helping, and adapt as we go. I work with couples and individuals navigating: recurring conflict, communication breakdowns, trust repairs, intimacy struggles, anxiety affecting the relationship, family and in-law boundaries, life transitions, stress and burnout, and reconnecting after rupture. Practicalities: 50-minute sessions • Online or in person in my Sandbach office • Individual & Couples. 🎁 20% Off All Therapy Sessions - Until May 2026 Next step: I offer a brief 10–15 minute introductory call (not a therapy session) where you can ask questions and we can see if we’re a good fit. If you prefer, you’re welcome to skip the call and book a first therapy session straight away. Available in-person in Sandbach, Cheshire, or online from anywhere.
