About me
I am a BABCP (British Association for Behavioural & Cognitive Therapies) accredited CBT therapist. This means my practice has and continues to be governed by the BABCP and I have met certain criteria in order to reach accreditation. You can visit the BABCP website for more information about accreditation.
I offer therapy for difficulties such as Low self esteem, depression, PTSD and a range of anxiety disorders such as OCD, Social anxiety and many more. I provide a warm, friendly and personable approach to my practice, ensuring that my client is at the centre of the therapy. CBT is goal orientated, meaning that we work together and create a treatment plan that suits your presenting problem.
I am currently offering online or telephone sessions meaning that you can have your sessions flexibly around your day, in the comfort of your own home. Please do get in touch for a brief conversation or to arrange an assessment to ascertain if CBT is right for you.
Training, qualifications & experience
- BSC Applied Psychology 2:1
- MSC Mental Health Nursing with merit
- PGDip Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with distinction
I have been working in mental health for a number of years (around 15!) having started as a support worker. My interest in mental health and people has never dwindled, and I now find myself in a very privileged position to be working 1:1 with people using CBT to help better peoples lives.
I work part time for the NHS in a Psychological Wellbeing Service (formerly IAPT) and one day per week (with some ad hoc evenings) in private practice. I only work with adults of working age, so 18 years upwards.
Member organisations
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.
