About me

I am a fully qualified and accredited (BABCP) Cognitive Behavioural Therapist and have previously worked for many years in the NHS as a CBT therapist, team manager and clinical supervisor.

I have a strong track record in helping people recover and build the resilience to cope with the challenges of life. My particular interests are in treating anxiety disorders including worry, OCD, panic disorder, health anxiety, PTSD, low self esteem and work related stress.

I recognise that treatment has to be tailored to meet the needs of the individual. I work in a collaborative and compassionate way with each client to find the best strategies to overcome their problems. I have also trained in newer, third-wave CBT interventions such as ACT, schema therapy and compassion focussed therapy, which can be integrated into the treatment approach .

I work hard to build a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients, so they are able to talk openly without being judged and can build their self confidence.

If you are interested in working with me, I offer a free twenty minute telephone consultation to discuss your needs and answer any questions you have.

Please email me on morayleyland@gmail.com if you would like to discuss availability or treatment options.
