Approach to Cognitive Behavioural Therapy & How I Work

We work together to develop a thorough psychological assessment and formulation (your story), to inform our work. Often, I will co-create stress management plans, or process previous work related trauma. Your individual needs are key - together we can make work better.
I offer you a safe space to discuss difficulties that you may not have shared before. I appreciate how difficult it can be to be vulnerable, but I will support you each step of the way. I like to get to know you first - making you feel comfortable is essential. Drop me an email today, as a signal to yourself that there is hope, and it will get better.
