CBT
As a trained Cognitive Behavioural Therapist, my approach is collaborative and focused on helping you create lasting change. In our sessions, we’ll work together to identify and understand the thoughts, feelings, and behaviours that may be contributing to your challenges.
We’ll explore how negative thought patterns can influence your emotions and actions. Through a variety of practical cognitive and behavioural techniques, you’ll learn how to break the unhelpful cycles and take active steps toward creating positive change.
The goal is to empower you with tools and strategies to help you better manage stress, improve your mood, and build resilience in life’s challenges. By the end of our work together, you’ll have a deeper understanding of yourself and the confidence to continue applying these skills on your own, long after therapy ends.
EMDR
In our EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) sessions, we’ll work together to process distressing memories and experiences that may be affecting your emotional well-being. EMDR is an evidence-based therapy that uses bilateral stimulation typically in the form of guided eye movements to help your brain reprocess past trauma or negative experiences in a way that reduces their emotional charge.
We’ll begin by identifying the specific memories or experiences that are troubling you and the negative beliefs you may have about yourself as a result. Through a series of structured steps, you’ll be guided to reprocess these memories, allowing you to let go of the emotional distress associated with them. This process can help reduce symptoms of trauma, anxiety, depression, and other emotional struggles.
Throughout our work together, we’ll also focus on strengthening your coping skills and creating positive beliefs that empower you.
