I am a BABCP accredited CBT psychotherapist specialising in treating children and young people ages 8-24.
Book a sessionI am passionate about supporting my clients to understand and recover from mild to moderate presentations including social anxiety, OCD, depression, panic disorder, phobias, health anxiety, low self-esteem and emotional dysregulation. I take time with the young person to build a trusting therapeutic relationship to support engagement, ensuring that the best outcomes are achieved. This may if required include parents and carers in the process. I have worked with children and young people for over 15 years across a variety of settings including local authority services, charities and private health care. I have delivered CBT and adapted therapy creatively as required, to meet the needs of clients who have experienced adverse childhood experiences, neurodivergent young people and looked after children, as well as providing therapy to children and families through private health care insurance. I am registered to accept clients with private health insurance from AXA, Aviva and Vitality Health. I am based in South Cumbria but work across the UK. Following full clinical assessment, treatment plans are developed focusing on individual need, and sessions can then be delivered remotely on Teams or Face to Face.
