Hello Im Steph, an accredited CBT therapist specialising in supporting people with anxiety and low self-esteem. I understand how exhausting and overwhelming it feels to carry the burden of self-doubt. Not feeling good enough, overthinking everything and feeling like an imposter. I understand how isolating it can feel, especially if you have become skilled in masking your true feelings to the outside world.

With over 20 years of experience, I have worked 8 years as a counsellor in primary care NHS and 12 years in private practice. Everybody I work with is a unique human being with a personality and life experience like no other. I work eclectically with a wide range of disciplines to achieve the best combination of therapeutic tools to help the client.

My attention and focus is about making you feel safe and cared for so you feel empowered and equipped to engage in the therapeutic process

Maybe you feel dissatisfied with your life, constantly in search of happiness whilst watching others enjoy their lives. Is this affecting your relationships? Are you stuck in this cycle? I know how hard it can be to ask for help.

Hello my name is Dawn, I understand that first contact and arranging a session and coming, takes a lot of strength, Many I have found is concerned about having to go into details of the concern they coming with or having to relive maybe a trauma. See therapy as painful. Therapy does not have to be painful, you do not have to go into details if did not wish to. Goals maybe to be able to look ahead to see there is a light, to feel heard, listened to, to be acknowledged. A place to feel safe and to look at all tools resources abilities already within to come away the the past and look to future which is preferred in a healthy way.

I began as an anthropologist, seeking to understand other people's cultures from their own perspectives. Then my desire changed to facilitating direct positive shifts in other people's lives; lives spoilt by trauma, depression, anxiety, abuse, persecuted sexuality and lack of life direction. My work is now with private clients across anxiety and mood problems - generalized anxiety, OCD, PTSD, psychosexual problems and depression. I also work in depth on relationship problems which often link with anxiety. In Islington Mind I worked with LGBT clients including asylum seekers persecuted for their sexuality.

Are you struggling with issues related to pain, sleep, stress, psychological impacts of chronic illness including COVID, trauma, anxiety or major life changes? There comes a time when we might need some help from a professional to help cope with many of life’s challenges. I’m a HCPC Registered Practitioner Psychologist (Health Psychologist) and Chartered Psychologist in Norfolk, and I’d love to help you on your journey towards feeling better about yourself, behaviour change, lifestyle modification and self-discovery.

Warmth, empathy, non-judgemental acceptance, scientific rigour and humour are at the heart of my approach to therapy. I follow core CBT traditions which put the client and therapist on an equal footing in a collaborative partnership, with the client as the authoritative expert in themselves. I aim to debunk and demystify, strip out jargon, and explain transparently how I work. CBT aims to give clients a therapeutic fishing rod, not just a fish, so that clients are helped to become CBT experts, their own therapists for the future. Therapy can be challenging, but more often it should be healing, uplifting, enriching and fun.

You may be successful and high achieving but your worries and tendency to go over worst case scenarios in your head are so hard to control. Perhaps your anxiety is making it difficult for you to sleep well, relax, causing problems in your relationships, or bringing on panic attacks. You may have been coping by trying to block the worries out or avoid the situations that trigger your anxiety, but this is only making it harder for you to be present in your life and relationships the way you want to be. I'm here to help and let you know that you can learn to live life in the moment and learn to trust in your coping skills again.
