For clients:

I work with individuals and couples experiencing psychological distress, in person or via video call. I will use CBT principles and disorder specific protocols to help you see the connection between your thinking and how you feel, and how this affects what you do (and vice versa). During your treatment we will identify ‘vicious cycles’ that are operating to maintain the problem, then formulate your difficulties, explore their origins, identify goals, and develop an individualised treatment plan to realise these. We will work collaboratively to better understand the patterns of thinking and behaving that are inadvertently leading to distress, ultimately modifying these to reduce unwanted symptoms. The eventual goal of CBT is to equip you with the knowledge and skillset necessary to self-regulate and manage your mental health, without the need for therapy, as you become your own therapist.

Mental health disorders I can help with include:

• Depression
• Low self-esteem
• Generalised anxiety
• Social anxiety
• Post-traumatic stress (PTSD)
• Obsessive compulsive disorder
• Health / illness anxiety
• Specific phobias
• Panic & agoraphobia
• Relationship distress
• Grief, loss, and adjustment
• Insomnia
• Body dysmorphia

For clinicians:

Clinical supervision is available for mental health practitioners, such as BABCP accredited CBT therapists. I have over 10 years clinical and supervisory experience, in both the NHS and private practice. I have spent the last 5 years as a senior practitioner in an NHS talking therapies services, so I am well versed in supervising trainees and qualified clinicians alike.
