Your Questions, Answered

I draw from a range of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, tailoring each session to your unique needs, goals, and experiences.

  • Person-Centred Therapy (PCT) is a gentle, humanistic approach that places you at the centre of the therapeutic process. It’s based on the belief that you already have the inner capacity for growth and healing.

    In our work together, I offer a safe, non-judgmental space grounded in empathy, genuineness and respect.

    From this foundation, you’re supported to explore your experiences at your own pace and move toward greater self-understanding and clarity.

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is an evidence-based approach that explores the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. It helps you identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical tools to respond in more balanced and supportive ways.

    In our work together, CBT may involve gently noticing patterns, challenging, building awareness, and learning strategies you can apply in everyday life.

    This approach is often helpful for managing anxiety, stress, low mood, and unhelpful habits.

  • Solution-Focused Therapy (SFT) is a goal-oriented approach that focuses on your strengths, resources, and what’s already working in your life. Rather than spending a lot of time analysing problems, it helps you identify small, meaningful steps toward the changes you want.

    In our work together, this might involve exploring your preferred future, recognising your existing strengths, and building practical strategies to move forward with clarity and confidence.

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is a mindfulness-based approach that helps you develop a different relationship with difficult thoughts and emotions. Rather than trying to eliminate discomfort, ACT supports you to make space for your experiences while staying connected to what truly matters to you. (Acceptance vs Resistance).

    In our sessions, this may involve learning skills to reduce the impact of unhelpful thoughts, increase psychological flexibility, and take meaningful action aligned with your values.

  • Mindfulness involves gently bringing your attention to the present moment with openness and without judgment. It can help you become more aware of your thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations, rather than feeling overwhelmed by them.

    In our sessions, I may incorporate simple mindfulness practices to support grounding, emotional regulation, and increased self-awareness. These techniques are always introduced in a way that feels safe, accessible, and suited to your individual needs.
