Psychotherapy - CBT

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is the type of therapy most commonly used by the NHS and in the UK today. It is what’s called evidence-based: it’s been shown to work. The form of CBT I particularly like is ACT, or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. With ACT we work with thoughts, behaviours and values. We’re all different, though, so we’ll decide together on the best approach.

Hypnotherapy

There is much false information about hypnosis. Unfortunately that does nothing except put people off genuine clinical hypnotherapy. Hypnosis is all about relaxation, which opens our mind to thinking about things differently. It’s enjoyable and you’re always in control. I like Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy. I offer hypnotherapy as an addition to therapy or on its own. I find people always enjoy it and find it helpful.

Breathing

Most of us don’t breathe very well. Over time we get into bad habits and unfortunately nature has not given us a ‘self-correct’ mechanism. What we don’t realise is just how much breathing affects our health, both mental and physical.
Nothing changes our breathing quicker than stress or anxiety. I often teach people who come for therapy, just a few basic exercises and it can really help.
