I offer a free initial telephone consultation to answer any questions you might have.
As an experienced CBT practictioner, I'm committed to sharing best practice with other health professionals from any training background.
I offer “one off” practitioner consultations, ongoing supervision and mentoring as a space to reflect on your individual client work, your overall therapeutic practice and your continuing professional development.
I can provide training in contemporary, evidence based CBT strategies, either 1-1 or to a group, as well as coaching to enhance your effectiveness when using CBT skills.
We can focus on tailoring CBT strategies to your specific client caseload or we can take a wide angled approach and look at how CBT can be appropriately integrated within your existing therapy framework.
Contemporary approaches under the broad umbrella of CBT offer an increasing emphasis on working with mental and physical health conditions through mindfulness and acceptance; compassion; self-parenting and nurture; and commitment to meaningful values. This makes contemporary CBT much more amenable to integration with other therapeutic models than is commonly thought!
How can I help you?
Possible topics for consultation could include:
effective strategies for specific client issues increasing the overall effectiveness of your practiceintegrating CBT with other therapeutic approachesbuilding collaboration and authenticity in the therapy relationshipusing CBT to address your own patterns of thinking and responding to clientsrisk management and harm reductionworking collaboratively and creatively when major challenges arise understanding and repairing ruptures to the therapeutic alliancebrief therapy strategies for time limited therapy and when swift change is neededaddressing the impact of the client's relational and living context addressing the impact of your own working environment on the therapy processintegrating elements of Eco-psychology and Eco-therapy when and how to work effectively outside the therapy roomI offer space to recognise the deep wisdom that our diverse life experience and personal challenges can offer to our professional roles - as well as a truly non judgemental space to identify where our limitations may be impacting less helpfully on the therapeutic relationship and client progress. My personal philosophy is to look for the profound insights that can come from all challenging situations and 'mistakes', as well as the transcendent value of humour to remind us of our shared humanity!

Feel free to get in touch to discuss how I might be able to help you and work out an arrangement that meets your specific needs.
All my clinic locations are a few minutes walk from tube & bus stops, with quick overground links. I can also come to your home, workplace, or other location that suits you best.
If an appointment is difficult to make, I can offer therapy, coaching and mentoring sessions by telephone.
