Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based approach that focuses on the connection between thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. It is a structured and practical form of therapy designed to help you recognise unhelpful patterns, manage distressing feelings, and develop healthier ways of responding to challenges.
CBT is often used to support anxiety, low mood, stress, and other difficulties where thoughts and behaviours can feel difficult to control.
-
CBT sessions are focused and goal-oriented, with an emphasis on understanding how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours influence each other.
Together, we identify patterns that may be maintaining distress and work on practical strategies to help you respond differently in everyday situations.
Sessions may include learning coping techniques, developing new ways of thinking, and building skills that can be used outside of therapy.

I support adults experiencing:
Anxiety and excessive worry
Stress and burnout
Low mood or depression
Panic or physical symptoms of anxiety
Unhelpful thinking patterns
Difficulty coping with life pressures

My approach to CBT is collaborative and tailored to your individual needs. While CBT is structured, sessions are adapted to your pace and what feels most helpful for you.
I combine evidence-based CBT techniques with a compassionate, person-centred style to ensure therapy feels supportive as well as practical.

CBT provides clear, practical tools that can help you manage difficult thoughts and emotions more effectively.
Over time, therapy can help you feel more in control, build confidence in your ability to cope, and develop long-term strategies to support your mental wellbeing.
