We are passionate about helping you to process the past and create change in your life

About Us


Talking Trauma

We offer evidence-based treatment based on clients’ individual needs. We specialise in helping people overcome the ongoing impact of having experienced distressing life events.

Our High Wycombe space is a bright and comfortable therapy room nestled in a peaceful private garden in the Village of Penn, High Wycombe–a calm rural area with ample on site parking.

We understand that it might be difficult to access our specialist support in-person, so we also offer our services via Zoom where you can get the support you need in an environment that’s comfortable for you.

Dr Joanna King

I am a qualified Counselling Psychologist registered with the Health and Care Professionals Council (HCPC). I hold a doctorate in Counselling Psychology from City University of London. I am an Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR) Europe Accredited Practitioner and have completed further training in Attachment informed EMDR, Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR), Mentalisation Based Therapy (MBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Narrative Exposure Therapy (NET).

I have been working in mental health for over 13 years and have experience in the NHS, third sector and private practice. I have experience in working with a wide range of clients from varying backgrounds and ages. I have worked with clients presenting with both mild and severe mental health problems. My experience includes working with anxiety, depression, bereavement, obsessive compulsive disorder, personality difficulties, anger problems (including within forensic settings), relationship issues, trauma, complex trauma, sexuality, and crisis management. I also have extensive experience in working with refugees and asylum seekers.

We provide therapy to people who are living with the ongoing impact caused by trauma. We understand that trauma is always valid; it has no size or shape. Take the first steps to rebuild your life, today.
