OCD is forever changing. Just as you find a way to shut it up, it finds a sneaky way to come at you - a new mutation of an intrusive thought, a new behaviour it convinces you to do, a new topic completely it switch to. It's a slippery so and so, which is why working with an experienced therapist is so important. Effective treatment isn't just about the intrusive thought that is at the front of your mind right now, it's about tackling any examples where you are acting as if your intrusive thoughts are true when they absolutely are not. Treatment isn't easy, most people have had OCD for years before therapy. But recovery is possible!

I’m a fully accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (CBT) and Schema therapist with a PG Cert in Compassion Focused Therapy. Our work would focus on understanding how your early life experiences have shape the patterns you are experiencing. This may show up as feelings of anxiety such as social anxiety, OCD, health anxiety or panic, feelings of low self-esteem, shame, depression, detachment or feeling overwhelmed. Rather than only managing symptoms, Schema Therapy allows us to gently explore and heal deeper wounds. I work collaboratively and at your pace, helping you understand yourself with compassion and develop lasting change.

I work with children and adults! When working with children, I like to involve the parents where possible. When working with adults, motivation is always effective in making change. I enjoy thinking with clients about realistic and long lasting goals, and I spend time working on a formulation to understand which patterns may be helping or hindering those I support.

Are you tired of constantly thinking about food, exercise or losing weight? You’re “good” for a few weeks, only to self-sabotage and beat yourself up after another binge. Perhaps food has always been the go to – whether you’re happy, stressed, or frustrated. Or perhaps exercise is the problem - you struggle to stick to a routine, or worry it's becoming obsessive. You may dislike your body, and feel a failure for letting yourself go. If these resonate, you’re not alone. It’s easy to get stuck in these negative cycles, but with the right support it's possible for things to change.

My clients come to me from all walks of life and have experienced trauma recently or in the past. This has resulted in my clients suffering from intense anxiety and fears and/or severe depression as well as relationship difficulties. My clients can feel stuck, vulnerable and helpless, which has such a disabling impact on their lives. I have the ability to initiate and maintain a confidential therapeutic relationship, where my clients feel safe, experience hope and a reduction of their psychological symptoms. My clients leave therapy feeling empowered and able to manage life's stresses. I have clinics in Heswall, Mold and Zoom call.
