As a member the British Psychological Society (BPS) I adhere to it's ethical guidelines in my clinical practice. This involves providing a safe, non judgemental and respectful space for clients to develop and grow.
How I Work
As a Counselling Psychologist I have been trained to work closely with wide range of approaches with the therapeutic relationship as the common denominator.I use specialised psychological assessment and formulation to tailor my interventions to the client's specific difficulties. The following information outlines how this process takes place.
I offer Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) for a wide range of phobias, anxiety disorders and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) aims to enhance client's experience by teaching them strategies to change their thinking and behavioural patterns which are maintaining their presenting problems.
I work with Schemas Focused Therapy and Relational Psychodynamic counselling for complex past events and relationship issues. This involves making links between the therapeutic relationship with past and present significant relationships to facilitate change and growth.
I provide Person Centred therapy for clients to find their own answers and develop their self esteem. This process involves providing a therapeutic and containing space which can be nurturing for clients.
I also offer culturally sensitive therapy and work closely with diversity.
I regard the therapeutic relationship as the core of my practice and work collaboratively with my clients, to ensure their empowerment by continuously making choices about their course of therapy.
I believe the therapy provides a very unique experience which can be highly rewarding. Although the improvement is entirely dependent on the extent in which clients are able to engage with the therapeutic process.
I have been running groups for anger management, anxiety and depression for several years.
Clinical Training in Counselling, Psychology, Psychotherapy
As a Chartered Counselling Psychologist I have been trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic and Person Centred counselling. These are the main three schools of therapy and counselling.I have a Degree in Psychology and an MSC and Post Graduate Diploma in Counselling Psychology.
