Therapy gives you the space to work out or simply remember what you want, what options you have to get it - and what gets in the way. We would work together to identify what you need and what changes are required to get closer to this. I believe clear advice can be helpful, drawing on experience and on psychological theory and research, but however we work it must make sense to you and be your choice. Above all, I see us as an alliance of equals with different insights and strengths. This collaboration is at the heart of successful therapy.
I often recommend Cognitive Behaviour Therapy but I am flexible in adapting the approaches used fit the individual. Realistic thinking is a necessary first step, but for real change, we also need different ways of coping. Where thinking too much is the problem I may recommend Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. I also specialise in trauma, using CBT or EMDR.
I believe we all try to make the choices that leave us feeling good about our lives and ourselves. Circumstances and the people around us can mean we go off track, resulting in anxiety, low mood or other difficult emotions. Many wrongly assume they have a fundamental flaw, but working together in therapy can unlock more effective ways of thinking and coping.
