People who reach out for some support might be experiencing difficulties with worry, negative self-talk or confidence. They may have noticed a change in their behaviours such as checking things more or avoiding certain situations. Sometimes it’s described as a vicious cycle. Whether this has been going on for a while or something new, we work together to understand what your unhelpful cycles look like and how we can break them by creating healthier habits and patterns of thinking, such as focusing and enhancing your strengths. This in turn changes how we feel, and helps us be better equipped to manage difficult emotions.

My speciality is CBT which is based on a wealth of evidence and is recommended by the NHS to treat low mood and anxiety. I am also currently training on the Counselling Psychology Doctorate, so my delivery of CBT may be sprinkled with a person-centred ethos!

It can be daunting seeking out support - you've taken a big step to even search for a therapist. People find it works best to have a free 15 minute telephone consultation to talk about your problem and to make sure we're a good fit for each other. I will also offer my honest and professional opinion as to whether I think CBT would be useful.
