About me

CBT aims to improve your mental well being by helping you understand how your thoughts can lead to unhelpful emotions and behaviours. It�s goal directed, solution focused and systematic. You will gain practical information about how you can make changes to your life. I usually use careful emphatic listening to enable my clients to obtain a real sense of their experience. There will be an emphasis of tailoring treatment to your needs using my DBT and ACT training skills . You will have a safe, private, confidential setting which will be comfortable for you to disclose material of deep personal significance.
I am a BABCP Accredited CBT therapist, Society of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy accredited DBT therapist and supervisor and I also offer EMDR therapy currently on the process of completing my accreditation as an EMDR therapist. I have a 20 years experience working within the NHS and the private practice as mental practitioner in various services, including forensic services, acute psychiatric wards, crisis teams, A&E mental health liaison and a psychotherapist within secondary care psychological therapies services at the NHS. I will draw upon my experience to offer a specific therapy model and protocol as well as an integrative approach specific to the person's need.
