"The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts." - Marcus Aurelius.

What is CBT?

Our brains can be lazy, not processing each of the thousands of daily thoughts. Instead, they form thinking habits based on past experiences, creating filters that shape our view of ourselves, the world, and others, these filters can be misleading.

CBT helps you understand how these filters affect your daily thoughts and perceptions, and it teaches you to identify and question any deeper beliefs that contribute to these filters.

When we understand the filter that our brain is putting on things and where it has come from we are then in a better position to begin to challenge our thoughts, allowing you to take the filter off, think more clearly and respond in the way you want.

CBT is about me helping you to become confident enough to be your own therapist by the end of our time together.

What can I expect?

CBT is a brief and organized therapy, but the amount of sessions will depend on individual needs.

I provide a free 15-minute consultation without any commitment. If we decide that Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is suitable for you and I am the right therapist, each session will last one hour. We typically begin with six sessions and review your progress halfway through to see how you feel about therapy and whether more sessions would be helpful, as each therapy journey is unique.
