I work in many specialist areas – mainly due to extensive frontline experience. They include:

- Relationships
- Personality disorder

- Emotional Focused therapy (EFT)
- Holistic therapy – including body work, mindfulness, yoga and nutrition awareness
- Relationship based interventions (attachment theory)
- Couple work

However, I do not narrowly categorise individuals’ needs according to issues because I work with people, not diagnoses and believes that a successful outcome is best achieved through tailoring differing psychological techniques & practices according to individual need.
In order to effectively treat my clients I use a variety of scientifically proven psychological techniques. Depending on who I am treating, I’ll use a combination of these techniques, that match the personality of those having therapy and the issues we are treating.
