About me
Hello I am Amanda, A BABCP accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist. I work with a range of issues, whether you are seeking relief from anxiety, looking to overcome depression or striving to enhance your overall wellbeing. Your unique goals are the heart of our work together.
My passion lies in helping people navigate the complexities of juggling work and life pressures, particularly those struggling under the weight of demanding expectations.
My aim is to empower you with practical tools and strategies to navigate life's challenges and achieve your goals.
I deliver CBT either face to face in Gosforth or online via a secure video platform dependent on your preference. I also offer a free fifteen minute consultation to answer any queries that you might have or just help you decide if we are a good fit.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a brief psychotherapy with sessions usually between six and twenty sessions. CBT has a strong evidence base and is recommended by the National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE) for depression and anxiety disorders.
I am a recognised provider with Axa, Aviva, Bupa and Nuffield
