About me

Hello, I am Lex. I am a warm, approachable, and highly skilled psychotherapist, Oxford-educated and BABCP-accredited, with over 10 years of experience in the NHS and psychotherapy services. As a Senior Lecturer in Psychology, I also teach and supervise other clinicians in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. If you feel that anxiety, low mood, or low self-esteem are affecting your daily activities, getting in the way of your relationships, or stopping you from enjoying your life, you may want to try CBT, which is the most effective therapy for those difficulties.

I provide individualised, targeted Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy, adapted to your unique needs, at a pace comfortable for you. My way of working is focussed on understanding your individual journey, your values, and your therapy goals. Where needed, CBT is supplemented by mindfulness-based and compassion-focussed approaches.
