I provide specialist assessment and treatment for children and young people (aged 5-25) and their families who are experiencing a range of emotional and psychological difficulties. I also provide assessment and treatment for women experiencing postnatal depression. My aim is to provide evidence based treatments that are tailored to your individual needs, circumstances and preferences. My main mode
l of working is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) as this is the evidence-based treatment of choice for a number of psychological difficulties but I do draw upon other therapeutic approaches when required.
