I hold therapy accreditations with the BABCP (British Association of Cognitive and Behavioural Psychotherapy) and EMDR Association.
I specialise in EMDR and Trauma Focused Interventions. I have specific expertise in working with people with trauma related mental health conditions such as PTSD, childhood trauma, domestic violence, dissociative difficulties and psychosis. I offer an integrative approach to therapy drawing heavily on attachment and trauma- informed ways of understanding how difficulties in the here and now often have their origins in earlier life experiences. I believe that effective therapy should be empowering, focused and meaningful and built upon the foundation of a strong therapeutic relationship.

My work is with both individuals and couples. The skill-sets and experience I bring to therapy draw off my Systemic Practice, honing the skills of Internal Family System (IFS), plus Intimacy from the Inside Out (IFIO), for couples. These approaches are well known to bring about the transformative qualities and resources that exist inside people. These approaches are known to make difficult experiences possible, such as healing trauma, phobia or anxiety. I’ve learned this is possible through the evidence of transformations that I’ve witnessed in my practice and what my clients feedback.

I work first and foremost with the Person-Centred approach, however, when I see fit I bring in a range of models and theories such as CBT, Existential, Transactional Analysis etc.
The decision to look for a counsellor is a huge step and one which I feel should be commended.I provide a safe space in which you are listened to, understood and not judged. My aim is to encourage self-understanding and hope.  There are of course various reasons for choosing to go to counselling. In my sessions, I respect the uniqueness of each individual. Our focus will be on the areas that matter to you and what you would like to achieve. I believe that therapeutic change comes from having our feelings validated and explored in a friendly, safe and empathetic environment.

Cognitive Behavioural (CBT) Counsellors

How does cognitive behavioural therapy work?

Cognitive behavioural therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario catastrophising or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.

When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioural therapy?

It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioural therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.

How can I find a cognitive behavioural therapist for someone else?

To find a cognitive behavioural therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioural therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.

Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?

CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
