How do I work?

No two people are the same, and I will work with you to develop an approach to treatment that is tailored to your individual needs and concerns. There are many different ways to address psychological issues, and I will work with you to find the approach, or combination of approaches, that suits you. Having trained as both a counsellor and a cognitive behavioural psychotherapist I am well placed to do this.

My approach to therapy is compassionate, honest and collaborative, and my focus is on developing a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship to enable you to resolve difficulties and make positive changes.

I always arrange to see my clients for an initial assessment which allows you to decide if you think I am a person you feel able to work with in therapy. After this session there is no obligation at all to return to therapy although, of course, I hope you will want to.

I am experienced in the assessment and treatment of a wide range of psychological and emotional difficulties, such as ...

• depression
• anxiety
• post-traumatic stress disorder
• obsessive-compulsive disorder
• relationship and family difficulties
• low self-esteem
• grief and loss.
