Noemi Berger is an experienced psychological therapist who works with individual adults, couples, and adolescents (age 12+).
She works with a wide range of issues and problems including: anxiety; low mood / depression; obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD); chronic illness; trauma; stress; relationship issues; bereavement / grief; body image issues; phobias; neglect; though process issues; and many more issues.
She is particularly experienced in working with adolescents with special needs, conduct disorders and learning disabilities.
Noemi will work with each individual or couple to get to the roots of what is going on. This will often involve the exploration of early childhood experiences to discover how these may have shaped an individual's personality and how they contribute to the present situation.
When working with young people, Noemi takes a psychodynamic and developmental approach and she frequently uses non-verbal techniques such as drawing and elements of art therapy. She believes in the importance of involving the broader environment of the adolescent, e.g. family members, teachers and other important people, to understand the problem/s.
Noemi has a Masters Degree in Psychology and Psychology Teaching and a Post-Graduate Degree in Clinical and Mental Hygenic Child and Adolescent Psychology. She has additional training in Family Therapy.
