Profile
Angry? Depressed? Anxious? Needing couple counselling?
I am a UKCP registered psychotherapist who may be able to help with your difficulties.
My aim is to tailor therapy to suit the your needs and to use a variety of approaches to offer the best help I can. I work with couples and individuals with problems including anger management, relationship problems, compulsion and the internet, depression, anxiety, and psychosexual therapy.
The first appointment is an assessment session that gives you the opportunity to ask questions and talk about your difficulties. I will also ask questions so that I get a picture of the background and your current life. We talk about what you would like to gain from therapy and how this may be achieved.
It is important therapy goes at the right speed - not too slow as this can undermine motivation, nor too fast as this can lead to the changes made not being strong enough to stay in place. The pace has to suit you.
I am able to offer psychological therapy for the following:
* Sexual and relationship difficulties for individuals and couples.
* Anxiety.
* Phobias.
* OCD.
* Depression.
* Anger Management.
* Trauma.
* Bereavement and loss.
* Stress.
I often use mindfulness - an approach using meditation, that can help reduce stress, improve concentration and self management - as many people find this approach to be helpful. This is increasingly used in NHS psychological therapy services.
