Harriet

Dr Harriet Mellotte

Clinical Psychologist

I am a qualified Clinical Psychologist, Cognitive Behavioural Therapist and EMDR Therapist working with adults both in the NHS and privately.

About Me

I help adults navigate life's complexities, offering a grounded space to explore difficult feelings. As a Clinical Psychologist, I draw on evidence-based approaches like EMDR and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. We can work together to process past experiences or build practical skills for current challenges. If you're seeking a clear, collaborative path forward, my experience in both NHS and private practice means reliable support. This is tailored to your unique journey.

Approach

Across public and independent services, I offer a structured, collaborative way of working that stays attentive to personal meaning and practical change. I see people online, typically meeting weekly with clear session goals and space for reflection between appointments. Work often moves between focused skill practice, tracking progress with measurable steps, and carefully paced memory processing when trauma memories are present. This approach suits adults looking for steady, evidence-informed support to manage anxiety, low mood or the effects of past events.
