Our Approach to Therapy
At Between the Trees', we offer a relaxed and warm approach to Therapy. Part of all Therapists training requires Therapists to attend Therapy throughout the qualification levels. This means that we have all been in your shoes. We know the nerves of a first session, the safety and contained space required to let the tears flow and the spark moment as we are therapeutically helped to link events, we have previously felt emotionally stuck in to create new understanding and flow.
A requirement at Between the Trees' is that all Therapists are Intergratively trained and are able to utilise many modalities including Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Humanistic Theory. Along with our private Therapy sessions, we also have contracts with many educational establishments, providing discreet Therapy appointments to young people in education settings.
The common reasons that people may approach counselling are for support with worries, low self-esteem, feeling stuck in a life that does feel authentic to who they believe they could be, alongside high anxiety and burnout.
In our adult appointments, we are currently seeing many people who navigating family loss, relationship worries, recent diagnosis of Nurodivergence or people who are choosing to move away from marriage and long term relationships that are no longer serving them, and it is a pleasure to support all of our wonderful Clients through the intrepid journey of creating a new life, new discoveries of them selves and embarking on a discovery of their potential yet to be realised.
We are so looking forward to meeting you.

Meet Zoë Rule-Haynes MBACP (she/her)
Zoë is an Integrative Therapist who utilises various modalities including Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Humanistic Theory. Alongside her therapeutic experience, she also has 12 years’ experience of working with young people in education establishments.
Zoë is qualified in Autism Education Support and commonly will see Autistic clients with a sense of need to explore themselves existentially. In this context, she also has experience with working with clients with profound depression, self-harm and suicide ideation.
Zoë commonly sees Clients (both Child/Adolescent and Adult )that are feeling overwhelmed and Anxious. Zoë plans dynamic and engaging sessions to help her Clients understand how to regulate their nervous systems and begin to take back control of their own lives. During sessions, she is able to work with a Trauma Informed approach to support Clients with worries, low self-esteem, feeling stuck in a life that does feel authentic to who they believe they could be. Zoë is about to release her first book 'A Therapists Insight' Which explores empowerment in the wake of leaving traumatic relationships and is a huge cheerleader of anyone who has found the courage to begin again in the wake of Traumatic experiences.
Zoë aims to set gentle, achievable goals that the Client's look forward too and will be empowered by. Zoë works holistically with an awareness of diet, sleep, current work load and stresses as well as historical timelines of events that matter to the client. Commonly, she will also look at dream analysis and a deeper exploration of the Client using Transactional Analysis and strength finding work. Clients can then start predicting how they may react to new situations that feel safe and validated in those moments as well as acknowledging their growth and take pride in this.
Zoë is a huge supporter of using art in therapy to facilitate communication and growth especially in self-esteem and social communication, thus promoting secure attachments, a sense of self and an inner resilience that can positively impact the rest of the Clients life.
Zoë says: It is a pleasure to support my Clients through the intrepid journey of Therapy and exploration of themselves as they create a new paradigms, embarking on a discovery of their potential yet to be realised. It takes great courage to accept that you may need help and I wish you so much success in your therapeutic journey.
