Naomi Moller trained as a counselling psychologist in the United States.

Naomi has worked with clients for about 25 years, mostly with adults in longer-term therapy.

Tanya Frances is a counsellor and psychotherapist accredited by the BACP, as well as a chartered psychologist with the British Psychological Society. She is a Lecturer in Counselling and Psychology at The Open University and she has a small practice with adult clients doing mostly trauma therapy.

Her training and professional background are grounded in humanistic approaches, with a particular interest in the existential tradition. Claudine’s research is closely linked to her work with clients and focuses on themes like loss, change, regret and midlife transitions. She is especially interested in how people make sense of these experiences and how we can support the search for hope, perspective and meaning during challenging times.

Gina Di Malta is a Chartered Counselling Psychologist accredited with the BPA, a Senior Lecturer in Psychotherapy and Counselling at The Open University, and the Editor of the international peer-reviewed journal Counselling and Psychotherapy Research.
