About
I have qualifications in cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT). I have attended CPD training in cognitive analytical therapy (CAT), compassion focused therapy (CFT) and person-centred care.
I have a special interest in trauma, personality disorders and neurodevelopmental disorders. I was trained through the NHS to work with people with long-term conditions and I have a history of working in the NHS IAPT and CAMHS services.
Additionally, I have worked in forensics and within the Ministry of Defence.
Please be aware that I am accompanied by my guide dog Zooby.
