Life can be difficult at times and you might be feeling stuck. You might be anxious, depressed, or struggling with self-esteem and longing to find a way to change. Things happening around you, big life changes, challenges, and trauma experienced in the past, or current relationship difficulties can add up to a quagmire that is tricky to make sense of alone. Together we can start to tease out the specific issues going on for you. The work I do looks to understand unhelpful thinking and behavioural patterns developed in the past and how they impact you in the here and now.
Small changes can have a big impact. I work with adults of all genders. I am an integrative CBT therapist, and use other modalities, psycho-dynamic/analysis, and NLP where appropriate. Together we can create an approach to help meet your therapy goals.
Reaching out can be hard and it is important to find someone for you to work with, who you can connect with in a safe, compassionate, and non-judgemental space. I am best reached through email. Together we can agree on a mutually suitable time for a free initial phone call, for you to see if I am the therapist for you. I look forward to hearing from you.

For anxiety, I would normally work with you for 3-9 sessions with cognitive behavioral therapy. We may include other empirical therapies, which we could discuss. Most patients see a shift in symptoms within a month and consistent improvement thereafter.

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
