Hello, I am Kim, a Chartered Counselling Psychologist. I specialise in helping people who are struggling to cope with chronic conditions such as persistent pain, chronic fatigue syndrome, diabetes or life following an accident. It can be difficult to adjust to life with a chronic condition. It is common to feel anxious about the future and low in mood. The desire to return to your previous self or to be different in some way contributes to the struggle. I have worked extensively in the NHS and private practice. My aim is to help you live your best life despite the condition.
Due to my training as a Counselling Psychologist, evidence based practice informs my work. I draw on several types of therapy including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness and others. I will work with you to develop a plan that helps you to identify your values and goals so that you can live your best life.
Choosing the right person to work with can be overwhelming particularly when faced with so much choice. It is so important for you to find someone you can relate to and feel comfortable with. Making the move to reach out for an initial chat can be hard, but it is only by taking this action that you will get one step closer to living your best life.
