Are you looking for QUALITY THERAPY? Not all therapy is the same. I'm the person that other therapist send their friends and family to saying "there is nobody else we trust to treat them." If you want to get a feeling of quality therapy I'll give you a free 30min telephone chat so that you can experience the difference and decide for yourself. I look forward to your journey in becoming your "ideal self".

I initially trained in Counselling psychology BSc (Hons) Counselling Psychology. When I move from South Africa to the UK over 10 years ago I started to specialise in CBT therapy and trained as both a PWP and High Intensity therapist. I am an accredited CBT therapist with the BABCP. I am also a qualified High Intensity Supervisor and have a number of trainee and experienced therapists under my wing. Three years ago I trained in EMDR therapy and have been using it regularly ever since.

I initially trained in counselling but now specialise in CBT and EMDR therapy. I am particularly passionate about working with trauma (and have an excellent recovery rate). I also supervise and train other therapists on trauma therapy best practices. I have years of experience treating anxiety, worries, GAD, Depression, Phobias, OCD, Social Anxiety, Health Anxiety, stress to name a few.

I love to tell stories and share analogies as this is what people remember. I don't tend to use worksheets and workbooks but rather have the clients bring in examples of the problem each session and then work out a solution together. I like to make sure we understand the problem in a simple way and then move towards a simple solution that works for you as an individual. I believe that most improvements come about through habit change - which takes time and energy but does work.
