Accredited Cognitive Behavioral Therapist – BABCP EMDR Dip RMN

I am qualified in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and have experience working within the NHS and Private sector. I initially qualified as a Mental Health Nurse in 2001 and have practiced CBT since 2008. I also qualified in EMDR in 2012 . EMDR is a therapy based on the natural coping mechanism that occurs during sleep, in particular during rapid eye movement and is very effective in treating trauma . It can also be used to treat other psychological problems.

I have extensive experience of using CBT to manage a range of problems including, depression, panic, generalised anxiety, OCD, PTSD, health anxiety, low self esteem and social anxiety. I am fully accredited with BABCP since 2013.

If you are thinking about therapy but are not sure if it will help you, I am happy to speak to you over the phone before booking an appointment.
