CBT/EMDR Therapist - Adults
£115 - £135
I am a BABCP accredited psychotherapist in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and an EMDR Europe Accredited Practitioner with The EMDR Association. I am also trained in Compassion Focused Therapy which I incorporate into my practice. I have over 20 years’ experience working in mental health in the NHS, first as a mental health nurse, then a psychotherapist. I have worked with a wide range of people struggling with their mental health from mild to moderate mental health difficulties to those with complex and severe and enduring mental health difficulties.
Given the right set of circumstances any of us could experience mental health difficulties. Life can be joyful, but at times can be incredibly stressful. We can experience traumas and adverse life events which can significantly impact our mental health and lives. There are so many factors that can influence how we are thinking, feeling, and behaving, causing us to feel unwell and overwhelmed & in need of help and support.
At these times, having a safe therapeutic space in which to start to understand how we are thinking, feeling, and behaving can help us to start to make changes and move forward. In therapy you can learn new skills and ways of understanding yourself that can help you to feel more stable and in control of your mental health and life.
