My Approach

Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT) focuses on identifying and challenging irrational or unhelpful beliefs that contribute to emotional distress and difficult behaviours.

Through REBT-informed work, we examine the beliefs and interpretations that underlie your emotional responses and work toward developing more balanced, rational ways of thinking.

The aim is to reduce unnecessary emotional suffering and to build greater resilience in the face of life's inevitable challenges.

Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) was originally developed for individuals who experience intense and overwhelming emotions. It combines acceptance-based strategies with skills for change.

DBT-informed work focuses on building skills in four key areas: mindfulness, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness.

It can be particularly helpful for those who struggle with emotional intensity, self-destructive behaviours, or difficulties in relationships.

A psychodynamic-informed approach explores how unconscious processes, past experiences, and relational patterns may be influencing your thoughts, feelings, and behaviour in the present.

This work involves developing greater awareness of recurring emotional themes and relationship dynamics that may be shaping how you experience yourself and others.

By bringing these patterns into awareness, it becomes possible to understand yourself more deeply and to gradually shift ways of relating that may no longer be serving you well.

Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) is a goal-directed approach that focuses on identifying strengths, resources, and what is already working in your life, rather than on problems and their causes.

This approach helps you clarify what you would like to be different and explore the small, concrete steps that can move you in that direction.

SFBT can be particularly effective when you are looking for a focused, practical, and time-limited way to address specific difficulties and build momentum toward positive change.

Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based therapy that helps individuals process traumatic or distressing memories that have become stuck in the nervous system.

Through guided bilateral stimulation — typically eye movements — EMDR supports the brain's natural healing process, allowing distressing memories to be processed and integrated in a less painful way.

EMDR is recognised as an effective treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and can also be helpful for a range of other difficulties rooted in past experiences.

Supportive counselling provides a warm, non-judgmental space where you can talk openly about what you are experiencing, without the pressure of following a particular therapeutic model or agenda.

Sometimes people simply need to feel heard, to make sense of what they are going through, and to feel less alone with their difficulties. Supportive counselling meets you where you are.

This approach can be especially helpful during times of transition, grief, stress, or when you are not yet ready for deeper therapeutic exploration but need consistent emotional support.
