I have extensive experience of providing evidenced based, CBT treatment for symptoms of:

• Depression and anxiety in relation to Long term health conditions and medically unexplained symptoms.

I enjoy working collaboratively with clients to build a strong therapeutic relationship and develop skills and techniques to reduce symptoms and improve their wellbeing and quality of life. I always endeavour to help clients feel safe and supported throughout this process. I pride myself on my skills to help clients feel at ease and feel able to be open and honest throughout their journey in treatment. I am passionate about CBT as I believe it helps clients develop a deeper understanding of their difficulties and enables them to take control of their own mental health and make positive changes to improve their mood.

CBT is a proactive, present focused treatment which aims to help clients develop the strategies they need to tackle their emotional difficulties. It is goal focused, meaning we work together to identify what you would like to get out of treatment, and how we can work together to achieve this.

I engage in regular clinical supervision to ensure I provide the best possible care and continue to develop my clinical skills. I am also a qualified clinical supervisor and have experience in training and supervising other staff members in the treatment of depression and anxiety disorders.
