Dr Paul Garden
Psychologist, Doctorate in Psychology, DPsych, MSc with Distinction, BSc First Class Honours.
During my time in the NHS, I spent several years working with people struggling with issues around addictions. I specialise in developing understanding of the deeper purpose of the addiction; what it's origins are and what it's attempting to heal. This understanding can lead to a greater sense of freedom and opportunity.

Louise Perry
Registered Psychotherapist, IFS UKCP HCCP
I have over 25 years’ experience of living within 12-step recovery, including recovery from addiction to drugs, alcohol, and sex and love. This lived experience informs my clinical work, particularly with clients who are new to recovery, returning to it, or seeking additional therapeutic depth alongside an established recovery programme.
I understand the complexities of recovery beyond abstinence, including identity, relationships, shame, and long-standing patterns of self-protection. I bring this understanding together with my professional training in Integrative Art Psychotherapy and Internal Family Systems (IFS), offering a thoughtful and grounded therapeutic approach that respects both structure and complexity.

Shareen Birges
Registered Social Worker, BASS, GDYMH, MSW
I have worked with both young people & adults with substance misuse/abuse issues & those with diagnosed addictive behaviour. Using motivational interviewing & elements of CBT, I work with a person-centred & strengths based approach to tailor treatment to the personal needs of the individual & their significant others. I understand that recovery can be difficult & how important it is to move at the pace of the indiviudal seeking support. I work on the basis that relapse is part of the process & as discouraging as this can be, it is important to use these set backs as a learning opportunity to better enable the individual to make recovery stick the next time around.

Derby is a major hub for aerospace and advanced engineering — home to Rolls-Royce's civil aerospace headquarters and a substantial precision manufacturing sector — creating a therapy landscape shaped by the particular occupational pressures of high-stakes technical industries, including shift work stress, contractor uncertainty, and the psychological weight of safety-critical work. The city's diverse population includes large South Asian and Eastern European communities that drive growing demand for multilingual and culturally affirming therapists. Derbyshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust provides public mental health services, with a private therapy community serving Allestree, Mickleover, and the city centre. The University of Derby's psychology and counselling programmes supply training pipelines into the local clinical community.
