Explore what shapes how you feel, live and relate

Mindfulness-Based Core Process Psychotherapy (MCPP) is a compassionate, embodiment-focused approach that blends mindfulness with explorative talk therapy. It helps you develop a deeper awareness of your thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations in the present moment, offering insight into how past experiences influence your well-being. Rooted in both Buddhist psychology and Western psychotherapy, this approach encourages self-awareness, emotional resilience, and a greater sense of ease in life.






Core Process Psychotherapy brings together mindfulness, embodied awareness and relational understanding.

how core process psychotherapy can help

Through a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship, you are encouraged to explore your inner world with curiosity and kindness, leading to deeper self-understanding, improved relationships, and meaningful, lasting change.


At the heart of this therapy is the belief that you have an innate ability to heal and grow. By paying close attention to both your mental and physical experiences, you can develop a stronger connection with yourself. This embodiment-focused, trauma informed approach helps you recognise patterns held in the body, release tension, and restore balance.

Mindfulness-Based Core Process Psychotherapy (MCPP) is a compassionate, embodied and relational approach that brings together mindfulness and talking therapy. It can support a deeper awareness of thoughts, emotions and physical sensations in the present moment, while gently exploring how past experiences and relationships may influence how you feel and respond today.

Rooted in Buddhist psychology and informed by Western psychotherapy, attachment and contemporary understandings of trauma, this approach can support greater self-awareness, emotional resilience and a more compassionate relationship with your experience.

Central to Core Process Psychotherapy is an understanding that beneath our learned and conditioned ways of being lies an inherent capacity for health and well-being. By attending to psychological and embodied experience, we can begin to recognise habitual responses, explore how they may once have helped us adapt, and notice where they may now be limiting how we live and relate.

Within a confidential and supportive therapeutic relationship, you are invited to explore your experience with curiosity and kindness. Over time, this can create greater awareness and choice in how you respond to difficulties, relate to others and meet the changing circumstances of your life.

Areas we can explore together

 Finding greater steadiness during difficult or overwhelming times.


Exploring identity and neurodivergence experience with greater understanding and compassion.

Exploring how past experiences may influence how you feel and respond today.


 Exploring the emotional impact of illness, health changes or diagnosis.

 Support through bereavement, significant loss and endings.

Support through parenting, family changes and significant life transitions.

Finding greater steadiness through conflict, uncertainty and change.


In a Core Process Psychotherapy session, you can expect a calm, confidential and supportive space to explore your thoughts, emotions and embodied experience with curiosity and kindness. Sessions last 60 minutes and take place online via Zoom or in person in Lewes, East Sussex.

We begin with an initial consultation to explore what brings you to therapy, what you are looking for and whether working together feels right. Following this, regular sessions allow continuity and trust within the therapeutic relationship to develop over time.

Sessions may include mindfulness practices such as breath awareness and gentle attention to what is happening in the present moment. Alongside talking about your experiences, we can explore how they are felt and expressed in the here and now, bringing awareness to habitual responses that may otherwise go unnoticed.

Over time, this compassionate awareness can support greater understanding, more choice in how you respond and a deeper connection with yourself and others.
