My areas of expertise include:

- social skills training,
- anxiety disorders, across all age groups;
- eating,
- coping skills
- addiction.
My goal as a counsellor
My goal as a therapist is to teach you skills, so that you are better equipped to effectively manage emotional distress and reduce problematic behaviours.
I use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and integrate this with other approaches drawing on aspects of the unconscious, relationships and wider social contexts.
I approach therapy in a collaborative manner, using therapeutic interventions tailored to the unique needs and strengths of each client, while providing a safe and confidential space for my client.

What I Treat
Our feelings and behaviour are largely a product of our thoughts (cognitions). CBT aims to help us identify these thoughts and underlying beliefs and ultimately to alter the unhelpful ones through intervening by talking, thinking and changing behaviour patterns.
Anxiety and Depression
Life Transitions
Eating Disorders
