My therapy style

• My approach to therapy and client care is focused on tailoring treatment to the needs of the individual. I value the importance of treating the individual as a whole, rather than treating a psychological issue in isolation. I prioritise creating a safe space in therapy and building self-awareness and self-efficacy with my clients in a collaborative way. I use a range of evidence-based treatments, based on their appropriateness to the situation, including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Schema Therapy, and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). I also use Enhanced Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT-E) in treating eating disorders.
