My approach will be tailored to your individual needs.
I am a psychologist that specialises in the assessment, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mental health disorders. I have six years full time university training in the use of therapies that are structured and scientifically validated. I am committed to the highest standards of professional ethics and confidentiality.
I provide an integrated treatment approach based on current thinking in psychology, and drawing on a range of therapies including, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Schema Therapy, Motivation Enhancement Therapy/Motivational Interviewing, Psychodynamic Therapy, Attachment-based Psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems, and Gottman Method Couples Therapy. I can see you for shorter-term therapy that is solutions focused, or longer-term therapy for those problems that require more time to understand, process and resolve.
