My Approach
Coming to counselling can be a daunting experience, so I ensure a supportive, practical and jargon free approach to enable you to feel safe and confident to discuss the issues you need help with. I only use evidence based interventions.
Therapeutic Approaches are targeted on the individual's needs. I draw from the these models of Psychological interventions;
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
Dialectical Behavioural Informed Therapy
Schema Therapy
About me
I originally trained as a Mental Health Occupational Therapist, then added a Graduate Diploma of Psychology to my training. I work as a counsellor/therapist and have been providing help for individuals in both public and private practice for over 25 years. I am a lifelong learner and continue to access ongoing training in the treatment approaches I use in therapy.
