About me
As a BABCP qualified therapist I offer personalised CBT therapy for a range of mental health conditions including depression and anxiety. I have a particular interest in Health Anxiety and panic disorders although I have extensive experience working with a range of mental health conditions throughout my 12 year career as a mental health nurse.
I aim to provide a safe confidential space to explore your concerns and identify a plan that will help to meet your individual needs with a collaborative approach throughout the therapy.
I believe in a non-judgemental, open approach to establishing a positive therapeutic relationship throughout our therapy sessions and I have a strong belief in the evidence based efficacy of CBT models to manage a range of mental health disorders.
Currently I am able to offer face to face sessions online and telephone CBT. Also as a keen walker and lover of the outdoors, I offer an in-person "walk and talk" service in the Glasgow, Lanarkshire or Forth Valley areas at a reduced rate.
I very much look forward to hearing from you to arrange an Initial Assessment and explore the possibility of engaging in CBT therapy with myself.

I have 12 years' experience as a mental health nurse working in a range of environments, specialising in mental health assessment and crisis support.
Specific areas of interest include Anxiety, Depression, Phobias, Health Anxiety, Social anxiety, Addiction, and CFS.
