About me

I have over 10 years' experience working within primary care mental health settings & I am passionate about supporting individuals in their journey to understand and re-connect with themselves and others. I work with clients experiencing a wide range of difficulties, including Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Social Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, Low Self-Esteem, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Health Anxiety, sleep issues & work-related stress.

Compassion, kindness and a non-judgemental stance will always be at the forefront of my clinical practice. 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 to help us meet your goals for therapy.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is an empowering therapy and can be transformative � helping you to learn how to overcome difficulties and live a fulfilling and meaningful life. During therapy we will first develop a collaborative understanding of the problem and how it can form a vicious cycle; often leaving you feeling 'stuck'. I can then help you learn how to break this cycle, developing healthier, more helpful patterns.

There is no 'one size fits all' model to therapy. Treatment is about assessing and understanding what the issues may be before looking at any change. Change sometimes involves learning practical ways to manage and other times it may be processing thoughts and feelings.

I abide by the policies and ethical standards laid down by the BABCP and I have full professional indemnity to work as a therapist in the UK.
