I am a fully qualified and accredited therapist. I have been trained in Integrative Psychotherapy which means that I studied various approaches to therapy and implement them into the therapy sessions per my clients' individual needs. I believe that in order for therapy to be successful, empathic listening and understanding need to be accompanied by encouragement and a challenge. In addition to my integrative training, I am a qualified CBT practitioner and I am able to support people in changing their unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns that get in the way of their lives and prevent them from achieving their goals. As well as seeing my clients for regular sessions, I provide them with exercises/techniques/guidance to use in between sessions.
