Marie Derome (BA, MA, Mpsych psych, ACP) is a Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist who has been working with infants, children, young people and their families for over 10 years. She currently works at the Bridge Foundation in Bristol, a not-for-profit organisation offering psychotherapeutic treatment to children and their families. She is part of a multi-disciplinary team and offers sessions to self-referred patients, but also to patients whose therapeutic support has been commissioned by Social Services or the Adoption Support Fund.
Marie works with a large number of adopted and fostered children who have complex needs, often as a result of early extensive trauma and loss. She offers short and long term and intensive psychodynamic psychotherapy, as well as therapeutic parent work and dyadic therapeutic work. She also supervises other mental health therapists. Marie is also the lead of the Parent-Infant Psychotherapy service (PIP) which she initiated and set up.
She has a special interest in working with parents and their infants who, for complex reasons, are struggling to form a healthy attachment and relationship. Marie is originally from France. She is married to the chef and TV presenter Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall with whom she has four children.
