I work as a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist in an NHS CAMHS (Child and Adolesecent Services) service and a small private practice. I previously worked as nurse for 15 years in CAMHS and adult secondary care. I comepleted my MSc in CBT in 2015 and since then have worked as a CBT therapist in CAMHS and with adults. In my private practice I work with children, young people and adults with a variety of difficulties including mood and anxiety disorders including trauma focused CBT. I have also recenty trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desenstization Reprocessing) and offer EMDR to children, young people and adults.
OCD is my area of expertise and interest and have extensive experience with using CBT and ERP for OCD. I also work with co morbidity including those on the autistic spectrum using adapted CBT models. As well as OCD I work with many other anxiety and mood disorders.
I like to use a family approach when working with children and young people and have been successful in helping parents to feel involved and reassured when their children are in therapy. I will involve parents and families as much as young person allows me. This is also dependent on their age but would definitely encourage this approach.
