About
I have worked in the NHS for over 20 years and I realise that therapy can be a new and unusual approach for people. I often work with folk who are finding things hard, and need a neutral form of support. I can offer direct support, teaching and practice in cognitive and behavioural techniques, or relaxation and mindfulness ideas to help. The goals that a person wants to work towards might be crystal clear to them, or they might refine these as we work together.
I use CBT, but also draw on other training I have. I am qualified in DBT so use a lot of mindfulness, relaxation, and emotion regulation ideas.
Every client has a story to tell, their recent problems or the complex life issues that they face. Having a chance to share that with someone is a good start, and I am confident that working on a problem is a way to resolve a problem. I'll support you the best I can.
