My Skills
I am an experienced mental health nurse and also a fully accredited Psychotherapist offering CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation & Reprocessing) and Brainspotting.
I am also trained in Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Solution Focussed Therapy.
In addition to these psychological therapy skills I am a fully trained and insured Reiki Master, and can integrate this powerful energy healing treatment into therapy if required, although at present this is not something I am able to offer due to current social distancing requirements.
I can help with the following areas:
Depression
Anxiety
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
Trauma
Health Anxiety
Social Anxiety
Bereavement
Carer Stress
Panic
Phobia
I have considerable experience working with Severe Mental Illnesses and also dementia in later life, and so am able to identify symptoms that may indicate that someone is experiencing a more serious mental illness that would require additional specialist support from secondary mental health services.
