Getting Through the Festive Season with Social Anxiety I wrote about Social Anxiety in the October 2017 edition of Forrest Rambles and thought that now was a good time to re-visit the topic with a focus on how to get through the festive season. Social Anxiety is an excessive fear of embarrassing you...

I visited the fantastic Turner: Always Contemporary exhibition at Walker Art Gallery today. This was my favourite painting as it beautifully captures hope in the depths of despair. The Wreck Buoy 1849.

Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) comes in many forms but one thing I’ve consistently noticed is that the symptoms go through phases of being better and worse.  I often refer to OCD as being like a ‘bully’ and I’ve noticed that when we are at our most vulnerable this bully has a nasty hab...

It's rather chilly this morning and without realising it I've been embracing Hygge! I wrapped up warm first thing and headed for a stroll around my local park. When I got home I made a cuppa, lit a candle and started work on updating my website. All of this reminded me of a blog post I wrote a while ago ...

Take a few moments to think about the word hygge. What, if anything, does it mean to you? For me, hygge brings to mind flickering candles, soft, warm blankets, a good book and a cup of hot chocolate, while outside all is wintry and dark. So, just what is Hygge, and how do you even ... Read more

Our Story

Forrest Talking Therapies started in December 2015 when a colleague asked me to supervise his private work. From here I worked with the Womens Organisation who helped me to set up my own business providing therapy and supervision on a private basis.

Prior to Forrest Talking Therapies I had many years experience of providing therapy in the NHS and charity sector. I was looking for more flexibility and variety in my working life and was excited about the challenges of working for myself.

I’ve been lucky to work with a number of local business’ who have helped me with essentials such as room hire, leaflet printing, referrals and website design.

I work with national companies and receive referrals from organisations such as BUPA and Nuffield Health. I have also previously worked with IESO Digital Health providing therapy online.
