About me
I am a BABCP Accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist, an EMDR Europe Accredited EMDR Practitioner, and a Clinical Supervisor. I am fully qualified and insured to work with individuals, couples, families and groups.
I now run a small private practice where I receive self referrals, referrals from occupational health and various health insurance providers.
Previously I was employed as a part time CBT Therapist and Clinical Team Leader for CBT Clinics, where I was responsible for managing clients and team members and reviewing safeguarding and risk which ranged from low, to high and immediate risk ,self harm, suicide, domestic violence and child protection issues.
Before this I worked in the Employee Assistance Provider sector and was a Clinical Lead for the Scottish Government's Inquiry into Childhood Abuse. I was also the Clinical Lead for Police Scotland's trauma support work. I carried out mental health and trauma triage assessments on a daily basis, and offered telephone counselling using CBT,CCBT and SFBT approaches. I also carried out vicarious trauma/psychological wellbeing resilience assessments, critical incident trauma debriefing and consultative support one to one sessions, and have worked on several high profile incidents.
Areas of interest
I treat adults only (18 and over) and am particularly interested in working with trauma using TF-CBT and more recently EMDR. I completed my MSc in CBT and focused on the TF-CBT model, suggesting the benefits of adding somatic practices to the current cognitive model..
