As an integrative therapist I work across multiple psychotherapeutic models like parts, Gestalt, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Transactional Analysis (TA), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy ( CBT) and others, tailor made to your needs.
My mission has always been to help others. That‘s why I trained to be a therapist, transforming your life and helping you to live the life you want to be living. Often this is to overcome trauma or limiting beliefs stemming from childhood, to understand why you feel anxious or stressed. Whether you might have problems around confidence, depression, or self-esteem, I can help you deal with it. Working with hypnosis and speech therapy, I combine the best methodology to help you.

It might be that you're experiencing anxiety and/or depression that you are finding hard to break away from. Perhaps you are feeling frustrated in your relationships and wondering how to break away from the negative patterns getting played out within these or maybe you have suffered some form of trauma which is still impacting you and your life today. I work either long or short term using different approaches depending on your needs and preferences.  Anxiety & depression can be a really scary cycle to be trapped in which I understand from a personal perspective having struggled with both in the past myself.

You bring yourself as the expert in "all-things-you", and I bring my CBT-specific training, evidence-based knowledge, techniques and interventions.
Many clients find their way to me following difficulty with symptoms associated with depression, low self-esteem and/or with features of anxiety (in its varying clinical forms.) They frequently report reaching a point where day to day life feels a struggle; offers little sense of purpose/direction with limited experiences of satisfaction or joy. By developing a shared understanding of their problem, including the elements that have served to maintain the clients problem until now - we can be better informed as to what changes are needed ( cognitively & behaviorally) to improve symptoms and renew their sense of coping.

I offer open-ended counselling using Humanistic, Psychodynamic and CBT techniques.
Whatever you're going through in life counselling provides non-judgemental and empathic support. Being seen and heard goes a long way towards starting to feel better. Honest communication tends to provide insight and clarity. This promotes growth, which ultimately results in change and acceptance. Guided reflection can help to make long lasting positive changes to you, your relationships and your future. The space to unburden and review your coping strategies can improve confidence and self-worth. You don't have to suffer alone, or worry about the impact of opening up to those around you. I look forward to working with you soon.

I work mostly by using the integrated approach, which is drawing on the Person-Centred Therapy, Psychodynamic and CBT models.
Life gives us challenges at times no matter who we are. We are better equipped to deal with these challenges when we have the right support in place. This is where counselling can play a big part in supporting you to deal with whatever challenges you might be facing. Studies have shown that traumatic childhood events can present in our lives when we reach adulthood leaving us in a state of confusion. No matter what your challenges are or where they have come from counselling is there to help you deal with them in a safe and neutral place. I can offer online counselling, face to face, and a walk and talk service.

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.
