About me
Hello!
I have over 30 years of experience working with people who feel distressed and wish to explore their mental health and wellbeing. I work with people who are 18+ experiencing challenges including anxiety, phobias, PTSD, depression and low self-esteem. I am also more than happy to work with people who wouldn’t define themselves using these categories who wish to get to know and understand their internal landscape better.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am trained to work using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Compassion Focussed Therapy (CFT) and Internal Family Systems (IFS). I also hold significant experience in nicotine dependence, smoking cessation, alcohol dependence and 12 step recovery programs.
My first qualification is as a Nurse and then as a Psychological Therapist. Through my initial and ongoing training, I have the skills and experience to provide a calm, consistent, compassionate and containing environment where individuals can explore themselves as fully as they choose and I can offer both short and longer term work.
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The BABCP is the lead organisation for Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in the UK. Membership is open to anyone with an interest in the practice, theory or development of CBT. BABCP also provides accreditation for CBT therapists. BABCP accredited members adhere to the Standards of Conduct, Performance and Ethics in the Practice of Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies, and are willing to be scrutinised in this adherence as required.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
