I am an Integrative Psychotherapist and so draw on the approaches to treatment that evidence suggests are the most affective in order to provide a tailored approach to your needs. When ever possible, I try to link the development, structure and function of the brain to the concept of ‘mind’ – that intangible element of ourselves that shapes our very personality; beliefs and values, thoughts and actions. I find that psycho-education plays an important part in the therapy that I deliver and that many clients benefit greatly from an understanding of how the structure and function of their brain influences their response to life events.
