About me
I am a Counselling Psychologist, registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). I provide a safe and professional space for you to explore your difficulties and find ways of coping to move forward.
I offer a collaborative approach, working with you to determine what your goals are and how we may begin to address them. I draw on a range of approaches to ensure that your wants and needs are met; including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), mindfulness based approaches and dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT). Services are provided using a variety of theoretical approaches adapted to suit your needs. I will work collaboratively with you to help you understand what you want from therapy and how you will be able to achieve this.
I work therapeutically with a range of presenting problems, and as a practitioner psychologist am skilled in offering psychological therapy to people experiencing complex mental health issues. I additionally hold a keen interest in working with children and young people.
I can assist you with issues you may be facing such as depression, trauma, anxiety, bereavement, relationship issues, self-identity issues, stress, anger management, addictions, sexual abuse, OCD, phobias, eating disorders and many others. Life coaching is additionally offered, addressing areas such as assertiveness training, and setting goals for areas in your life such as employment, health, weight, addiction or relationships.
