Debbie Thomson Therapy

Private Psychotherapist offering counselling and psychotherapy in Hull, East Yorkshire.

I’m private Transactional Analysis Integrative Psychotherapist, accredited with UKCP and MNCPS. Prior to becoming a psychotherapist, I worked in mental health services within the NHS and voluntary sector for 18 years and during this time supported adults and young people with a range of mental health difficulties. More specifically, I spent 7 years working in specialist eating disorder services of which I found incredibly interesting and rewarding. I also have a keen interest in working with people affected by Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and founded the first charitable organisation in Hull for those affected by OCD. In March 2023 I decided to take the plunge and give up my employed role as a charity manager and focus on my passion of supporting people in the therapy space. Since then, I have been busy building my private practice and spending quality time with my partner, family and fur babies! I support clients with a range of difficulties, including:

• Eating Disorders and disordered eating
• Obsessive compulsive disorder or behaviours
• body dysmorphia and body issues
• Stress
• Anxiety
• Low mood or depression
• Low self-esteem
• Suicidal thoughts or self-harm
• Trauma
• Grief
• Relationship difficulties
and much more…

I also work with couples using Imago Relationship techniques and offer therapy groups to trainee psychotherapeutic counsellors. I currently provide sessions either face-to-face from my office in Willerby or online, and offer an initial 30-minute free consultation. If you are curious about exploring if we can work together, or if you have any questions, get in touch to book a consultation 😊

Last weekend I did one of the scariest and most exciting things of my career to-date - I delivered a talk at the humber counselling & psychotherapy conference !!

I presented something I am deeply passionate about - how our relationship with food and body can become the symptom of relational rupture, shame, and emotional distress, and invited delegates to gently challenge the biases woven into their own food‑body narratives.

I took a risk and shared vulnerabilities about my own relationship with food and my body, and I challenged the status quo of ‘eating disorders’ being framed as individual pathology. Scary stuff indeed!

To honour the little girl in me whose attempt at 'perfectionism' was a shield against shame and missatunement, I wore my Little Miss Perfect T‑shirt. It felt like inviting her to stand beside me rather than behind me, letting her know she is welcome, held, and no longer alone in carrying the weight.

*This blog discusses the subject of eating disorders. If you are struggling, or knows somebody that is, please seek support in your local area.
