I am a highly empathic, friendly and experienced professional therapist with over 14 years experience. I offer an accepting & safe space to help clients overcome the barriers that stop them living life the way they want to. I utilise traditional CBT & newer '3rd Wave CBT' interventions, such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), metacognitive therapy & compassionate mind approach, to offer a flexible and individualised treatment process. I interweave these theories with EMDR and Attachment Informed EMDR. Including acknowledgement and understanding of our internal 'parts' that influence our helpful and less helpful behaviours.
I am a BABCP Accredited CBT Therapist and EMDR Practitioner. I provide 1:1 sessions to adults over 18 years of age, experiencing emotional and psychological difficulties, such as anxiety (including health anxiety, social anxiety and OCD), depression, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Complex PTSD, low self-esteem and work-related stress.
I am currently offering online sessions, which I know is not everyone's cup of tea to start with. Recent research shows that it's equally as effective as in person sessions. Clients report that it feels safe & comfortable as they are in their own space, it removes the stresses of travel to and from sessions and it can fit more easily around busy schedules.
