I have worked in the NHS for 44 years as a Registered Mental Health nurse and in the past 21 years as a CBT and EMDR therapist. I have worked with a number of severe mental health problems and performance related psychological issues. and now work predominantly Depression and anxiety disorders such as Generalised anxiety disorders and obsessional compulsive disorder to name a few. I also have a special interest in trauma related problems such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Most people think that PTSD is only found in veterans of war zones, this cannot be further from the truth, One off traumas from assaults, accidents or cumulative traumas from abuse also can also cause PTSD. In more recent times depression and OCD to name r 2. of many can also be treated with EMDR Which is really helpful for those difficult to treat clients that have tried CBT and not found it successful.
