Personal Summary
I am a transformation coach/CBT therapist who uses structured one-to-one sessions that focus on setting manageable life goals and an associated course of action that will enable clients to develop the skills they need to achieve them. I specialize in working with neurodivergent individuals and have extensive experience supporting those who have completed therapy but seek further guidance in flourishing across various life domains. I am currently training as a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (CBT), and in my practice, I support clients in addressing a range of challenges, including general anxiety disorders, depression, self-esteem issues, stress management, PTSD, panic disorders, health anxiety, sleep disturbances, and relationship counseling. As an Autism specialist, I also provide tailored support for individuals with ASD, helping them manage secondary symptoms such as anxiety, depression, anger, aggressive behavior, and difficulties with social skills and communication.
Background and qualifications
I hold a first-class BA (hons), three Masters degrees and am a fully qualified and accredited coach and a member for the Association for Coaching. I come from a background of over 11 years of working in the teaching profession and 6 years as a qualified life coach. Therefore, I have extensive experience in working with people in supporting thinking and behaviour that empowers them to achieve success in their lives. I am currently studying for an MSc in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).
My Speciality
I work with both children and adults, focusing on how they can overcome difficulties and adversity in their personal, social or working lives. I specialise in providing clients with the tools they need to enhance their lives by facilitating their development with respect to things like: cultivating confidence; coping with stress; effective communication; self-efficacy and time management; setting boundaries, social and networking skills; constructive conflict resolution and effective goal setting. I have helped clients with a wide range of issues such as difficulty with career progression, conflict within familial or intimate relationships and ineffectual approaches to key aspects of life such as managing finances or developing healthy lifestyle habits. In addition, I specialize in working with neurodivergent individuals, offering support that recognizes their unique strengths and needs.
How I work and Approach to therapy
At an initial appointment, I will review your needs and determine whether you would benefit most from coaching, therapy or a combination of the two. This would be followed by having a series of structured one-to-one sessions with you that focus on setting manageable goals and an associated course of action that will empower you to achieve them.
The focus of my practice is to empower you to create positive changes in your mental and physical health. To this end, I aim to establish a supportive and transformative relationship with you via a combination of: active listening; searching questions; goal setting; supportive discussion and activities you will work on between our sessions. The overarching goal is to put your needs at the centre of our time together and to create a compassionate, evidence based and supportive environment that will empower you to undergo the personal development necessary to effect lasting positive change in your life and well-being.
