About me
Hi, I'm Robert, an experienced CBT Psychotherapist & Counsellor and I've been in practice since 2018.
I have experience working with a wide variety of clients and a passion for helping people. My initial specialism is social anxiety and I love to help people discover and nurture their self-esteem and become more comfortable with themselves and their emotions. I also specialise in helping people mentally recover following road traffic accidents. I can help with pretty much all anxiety and depression issues and most other mental health presentations.
How I work:
I blend classic CBT with modern Compassion Focused Therapy. Together, we work towards uncovering the roots of your difficulties, re-appraising how current coping strategies are working (or not working) and also help you foster a kindness for yourself helping life feel lighter, brighter and more enjoyable.
If you are looking for help and support with depression and all types of anxiety, including OCD, mid-level PTSD, panic, generalised anxiety disorder and social anxiety, I can help. Whether you've been diagnosed or you simply feel something's not right and you'd like some help understanding what and why, and would like a bit of help making a positive change and feeling better get in touch and we can begin your journey to genuinely feeling better.
I can help with minor to medium level trauma using a tried and tested protocol, and with more complex trauma in more long-term relational work using CBT tools along the way.
Our sessions will have a modern self-compassion focus, and I will tailor a treatment plan with each client to provide a bespoke service for the maximum effect in as few sessions as possible.
If life's feeling a struggle or unsatisfying, help is here - so please get in touch or book a session directly on my website.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
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.
