About me
I have been working within psychological services for over twenty years and have been a qualified clinical psychologist since 2003. My experience ranges from child and family therapy through to working with adults and couples.
My approach is active and focused and is based on current evidence in the field. I am committed to providing effective therapy, delivered skillfully, with warmth and compassion.
These are some of the difficulties adults might come to see me for help with, although children can experience similar difficulties:
- Depression and Unhappiness
- Anxiety, Panic, Stress and Burnout
- Obsessive behaviours (OCD)
- Eating difficulties
- Sleep problems
- Relationship problems / Couple work
- Anger difficulties
- Trauma and PTSD
- Psychosis
- The management of Chronic Pain / Disability
- Emotional Regulation
- Social Anxiety
- Phobias including agoraphobia and claustrophobia
The approach I use and my training are a very important part of my work. I use a broad range of CBT and compassion focused approaches. This said, research has shown time and time again that the single most effective aspect of therapy is the therapeutic relationship. A well-rounded, humane approach is always the most important part of my work.
I would usually begin with an assessment so that I can get a sense of what you might need help with and so that you can ask any questions. We would then make an initial agreement about the type of work we might do together. In the first few sessions, I will want to know what your particular situation is and what you are dealing with and what you hope to get out of therapy whether for you, for your relationship of for a child.
Through all of this, I would be respectful of the potentially anxiety-provoking nature of the first few sessions and would tailor my approach to suit you. If you find it harder to talk then I will ask more questions. If you have a lot to say then I will listen more. Once we have agreed on the aims of our work together we will agree on a timescale which we review regularly to ensure you are getting what you want from therapy.
