About
I am an experienced CBT (cognitive and behavioural therapist) and EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) therapist. Both approaches are central to my evidence-based approach to therapy. CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health difficulties, such as depression, anxiety, OCD, social phobia, health anxiety and PTSD. I am also able to offer compassion focused therapy, which can be helpful for people who have difficulties with low self-esteem and self-critical thinking. EMDR is an effective treatment for PTSD. I am also trained in IPT, a treatment for depression.
I have over 35 years of experience helping adults with psychological and emotional difficulties both with the NHS and privately. I am accredited with the BABCP (British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies). I trained in EMDR with EMDR Europe. I hold a Post Graduate Diploma in CBT and a BSc Specialist Mental Health Practitioner qualification. I am also a qualified RMN (Registered Mental Health Nurse).
Services
I believe therapy is a collaborative process and I work with clients to help them understand what is maintaining their difficulties so that they can become the expert in their difficulty, reducing the number of sessions needed.
If you would like to book a session, please send me an email or you may prefer to call and leave me a message. I will then call you back as soon as possible.
