It is a difficult step to reach out and talk to a psychologist who you have never met. At our clinic, we want you to have an experience with a warm and engaging psychologist/therapist- someone you feel will listen to you, understand you and be there to support you. The relationship we will build, is very important to me and it is a priority at our clinic.

I use therapy that will suit your individual needs. Some therapy like CBT will involve challenging irratoional thoughts, whilst CBT E will involve behavioural strategies to work on your eating disorder. If you have certain life patterns involving periods of Depression and Anxiety, then Schema therapy will enable you to learn more about yourself and how to develop a strong healthy adult side.
