About me

Hi, my name is Doreen, and I am a fully qualified BABCP-accredited CBT and couple therapist.

I have over 10 years of experience working in the NHS, independent sector, and private practice. I am committed to providing the highest standard of professional care and quality therapy services. I provide a safe, non-judgemental, and warm space for people to talk about their feelings, thoughts, and experiences. I am passionate about supporting individuals and couples in their journey to understand and reconnect with themselves and others; process difficult situations and develop strategies to improve their mental wellbeing and functioning.

I work with clients experiencing a wide range of difficulties, including Generalised anxiety disorder, social phobia, depression, trauma and loss, low self-esteem, obsessive compulsive problems (OCD), health anxiety and work-related stress. I also work with couples experiencing various relationship problems.

Taking the first step to talk about difficulties that challenge or cause distress can be daunting at first. Therefore, at our first meeting you will be given the opportunity to talk, at your own pace, about the difficulties that you would like help with. We will work collaboratively throughout treatment and aim to meet your goals for therapy.

I abide by the policies and ethical standards set by the BABCP and provide safe practice. I look forward to working with you.
