I draw on a breadth of additional training and experience in both private and NHS settings to work with people in a bespoke manner drawing particularly on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Compassion Focussed Therapy, Narrative Therapy and EMDR .
Hi there! I specialise in working with complex emotional needs using a range of evidence based therapies. My clients have often experienced a range of adverse experiences such as trauma, neglect or emotional abuse and may be experiencing depression, anxiety, low self worth, intense emotionality or difficulty in relationships. I see people for both longer term and time limited therapy. I work well with people who experience shame around their issues or experiences, who are anxious about therapy or who have found previous therapy unhelpful. I also provide supervision and training to other psychologists and institutions.

I'm an experienced Compassion-Focused ACT, CBT & EMDR therapist & supervisor.
Overcome your Past & Fears, Find Self-Compassion & Resilance, and Flourish. If you're wrestling with a negative inner voice or baggage from your past, I understand. Perhaps you’ve forgotten what real joy or feeling safe is like? Or there's something you just can't seem to get past or a project you can't master? The search for a meaningful and fulfilling life isn't easy and it’s not your fault. It’s because you have a tricky human brain with a sensitive threat system, which can tie you up in knots trying to cope.

At RESET, we do therapy differently! The RESET model is an evidence-based, innovative therapeutic model incorporating psychological treatment ( CBT, Psychodynamic, Person-centred, DBT, EMDR, etc) combined with somatic interventions (physical activity, breathwork and mindful awareness largely derived from contemplative meditative practice).
Imagine waking up each morning with a sense of clarity, purpose and inner strength. RESET can take you there! Like most of us, you may face challenges and difficulties. At times you may feel anxious or depressed about work, relationships, stress, illnesses, etc. You want to escape the grip of frustration & shame, and stop the destructive cycle of self-loathing. There may be things about yourself, the past or the future, that confuse or concern you and affect your confidence and well-being. It impacts on your day-to day life (eating, drinking, gambling, overspending, outbursts, panic attacks, overwhelming feelings, etc.).

The fact that you are reading this now, and maybe feeling confused whether CBT will help can be a positive sign.
I am a qualified Cognitive Behavioural Therapist looking to support clients suffering from depression, anxiety, phobias, social anxiety, emotional abuse, lack of motivation and more. My approach involves allowing my clients to reach their goals ideally within 6 to 12 sessions by introducing strategies to improve their life-style, self-esteem and confidence. I also specialise in anger management and long term conditions (LTC) affecting our mental health. Feeling overwhelmed by our emotions can seem daunting, however learning how to deal with our mental health is important as this allows us to reach a positive mindset.

Although CBT is a structured therapy, support offered is tailored to reflect every personal circumstance and treat more complex presentations.
Life can be very fast paced, hectic and often we are not taught how to cope with any stresses that may arise. Over my time working in mental health, I have worked within many specialist services including outpatient services, addiction therapy programmes, general psychiatry in IAPT services and on psychiatric wards. This vast amount of experience over 10 years, has enabled me to develop a passion to help others feel empowered , to overcome lifes challenges and to learn how to take better care of themselves in the process.
