I provide highly specialist Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT), Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, and Person Centred Experiential Therapy. Working as a Senior Psychotherapist/Supervisor in the NHS I have helped many people overcome depression, low self-esteem, social anxiety, OCD, PTSD, panic, phobias, eating disorders, relationship issues, as well as helping to manage living with Long Term Conditions such as IBS and Long Covid. My postgraduate training was at the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience, King’s College, London, where I received tuition from world leading experts in CBT.
I trained in IPT at The Anna Freud National Centre, a world renowned institute. This, in addition to my extensive training in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy at Goldsmiths College, and Person Centred Experiential training at the Metanoia Institute, London means I have a wealth of expert knowledge and experience to support a wide range of mental health problems.
Depending on your preferred approach and goals for therapy, brief or longer term treatment can be offered. If you’d like to give me a call I will be happy to spend time with you discussing your individual needs to ensure that together we find a way of working that best suits you.
