I appreciate that choosing a therapist can feel difficult, so I hope this gives you an idea of who I am and helps you in your decision making. I have a background of over thirty years experience working in mental health as a Registered Nurse, before training as a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist. I believe effective therapy is based on you and I working together, not only to understand what is happening for you, but to consider a way forward underpinned by evidence based approaches. Developing a greater understanding of what is happening for you can also help you to develop techniques you can use if similar issues should reoccur.

I am an experienced professional who has seen just how effective CBT can be for anxiety and depression related difficulties.

Empathy and compassion, as well as understanding and respect, are what I bring to therapy sessions. I have a good sense of humour when appropriate, and enjoy working in partnership with clients.

Treatment Approach

Types of Therapy

Cognitive Behavioural (CBT)

I use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and behaviour. During treatment I will help you learn how to make positive changes to improve how you feel for the better.
