My expertise lies in assessing and treating individuals following one or more traumatic events, which can lead to a number of moderate to severe mental health problems or diagnoses. These include; obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), personality disorders, chronic depression and anxiety, insomnia, low self-esteem and confidence, and, in some cases, physical disabilities including, chronic fatigue syndrome or ME. I also work with clients experiencing mild to moderate mental health difficulties, which do not have a traumatic origin, including, relationship difficulties and life challenges.
The evidence-based therapies I apply with clients include; cognitive behavioural therapy, hypnotherapy, and EMDR. It is my firm belief that no one therapy is guaranteed to help all people. For this reason, I have studied broadly so as to offer the most appropriate treatment plan tailored to the individual's specific presenting needs and difficulties.
If you are looking for a well-respected and fully committed confidential service, please do reach out. The therapeutic relationship between a client and therapist is paramount to successful outcomes. For this reason, I advise new clients to touch base by telephone before making a decision to enter therapy. This is about finding the right person for you!
