CBT sessions
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a structured, practical approach that helps people recognise and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours. It’s based on the idea that the way you think affects how you feel and how you act, so by understanding and shifting those patterns, you can create real, lasting change. CBT breaks challenges down into clear, manageable steps, making it easier to tackle what feels overwhelming.
In therapy, we’ll work together to identify specific problems you want to address. I will help you notice negative or automatic thoughts that show up in certain situations, thoughts that may be distorted, overly harsh, or simply untrue. From there, you’ll learn to challenge those thoughts and replace them with more balanced, realistic ones.
CBT is active and collaborative, meaning you and I are a team. Sessions often include practical tools such as journaling, thought tracking, or small between-session tasks designed to help you apply what you’re learning in everyday life. You can expect a clear plan, measurable goals, and strategies you can start using right away.
Over time, CBT helps you build healthier thinking patterns, develop coping skills, and create new behavioural habits that support your long-term wellbeing. It’s a focused, empowering approach that gives you tools you can carry with you far beyond the therapy room.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapy designed to help your brain process and heal from painful or distressing experiences. It works on the principle that upsetting memories can get “stuck,” continuing to trigger strong emotions, physical reactions, or unhelpful beliefs long after the event has passed. EMDR helps these memories become less intense, allowing you to feel calmer and more in control.
During a session, you’ll focus on a difficult memory while following gentle eye movements, taps, or sounds in a rhythmic pattern. This process helps your brain reprocess the memory, reducing its emotional charge and helping you develop healthier perspectives. I will guide you through the steps at a pace that feels safe and manageable.
EMDR can be effective for a range of challenges, including trauma, anxiety, OCD, phobias, grief, and other emotional difficulties. It’s typically done in longer sessions, often around 90 minutes, to allow enough time for safe, thorough processing. Sessions are structured, collaborative, and tailored to your needs, with tools to help you cope between sessions.
Over time, EMDR can help you feel less overwhelmed by past experiences, regain a sense of control over your thoughts and emotions, and move forward with greater emotional resilience. It’s a focused, evidence-based approach that empowers your brain to heal naturally.

TF-CBT sessions
Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) is a structured, evidence-based approach designed to help people process and heal from traumatic experiences. It builds on traditional CBT but incorporates trauma-sensitive techniques to ensure a safe and supportive environment for addressing painful memories and emotions.
In TF-CBT, therapy focuses on both understanding and managing the impact of trauma. You’ll work with me to identify unhelpful thoughts and beliefs related to the trauma and learn strategies to challenge and reframe them. The approach also teaches coping skills to manage stress, anxiety, and emotional triggers, helping you feel more in control in everyday life.
Sessions involve gradually approaching difficult memories at a pace that feels safe, while simultaneously developing practical tools for emotional regulation. This can include relaxation exercises, grounding techniques, and ways to strengthen resilience. Sessions are usually recommended to last around 90 minutes to allow enough time to reprocess information when memories need updating, ensuring that the brain has space to integrate new, healthier perspectives.
The cognitive model for PTSD underpins TF-CBT, explaining that trauma-related distress often comes from how we interpret and make sense of the traumatic event. By identifying unhelpful thought patterns and learning new ways to process the trauma, TF-CBT helps reduce symptoms such as intrusive memories, nightmares, flashbacks, avoidance, and heightened anxiety.
Over time, TF-CBT can help you process trauma in a structured way, regain a sense of safety, and develop healthier coping strategies. It’s a practical, empowering approach that supports both emotional healing and long-term resilience.
Workshops
Bespoke workshops are tailored sessions, delivered either remotely or in-person, designed to promote mental health awareness, resilience, and wellbeing within organisations. Each workshop can be customised to meet the specific needs of your team, combining practical tools, education, and experiential activities to make learning engaging and relevant.
These workshops often focus on key areas such as:
An introduction to mental health: Understanding common challenges, reducing stigma, and promoting awareness.
Promoting personal wellbeing: Practical strategies to support your own mental health in and outside of work.
Managing work-related stress: Techniques to cope with pressure, prevent burnout, and maintain balance.
Communicating about mental health: Guidance on how to have supportive conversations with colleagues or teams.
Workshops are often experiential, meaning participants can practice skills in the moment, particularly around emotional regulation and stress management. They are designed to be interactive, thought-provoking, and directly applicable to everyday work life, helping teams not only learn about mental health but also build resilience and confidence in applying it.
By offering bespoke workshops, organisations can create a safe, supportive space for learning, skill-building, and open discussion, empowering employees to manage stress, support each other, and contribute to a healthier, more resilient workplace culture.
