Hi there - I'm a CBT Therapist based in Edinburgh - offering accessible therapy options in-person in Edinburgh and remotely online. Therapy should be a place where you feel safe to explore any emotion or experience that may be standing in the way of living fully and authentically. You may be here as you're experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, low mood, relationship difficulties, or a general sense of feeling stuck, lost or overwhelmed. I can offer a compassionate space to help you better understand yourself and discover ways to navigate life’s challenges.
While I specialise in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), I also draw on person-centred approaches to ensure therapy feels genuinely tailored to you. I believe everyone already has the inner resources needed to grow and heal - it just takes the right support to help them flourish.
Through a non-judgmental, inclusive, and encouraging approach, we’ll explore the thoughts and behaviours that may be holding you back. Life can be overwhelming at times, but with small changes it's possible to take back some control. I offer a free 15-minute no obligation call where we can explore what you're looking to get out of therapy.
