About me and my therapy practice

For over a decade I have specialised in the field of addiction, as well as providing a full range of therapies to individuals, couples, families and colleagues both in my practice in central Liverpool and around the North West. I also have a keen interest in the treatment of trauma and my increased and varied training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing) is something I am using increasingly over time, as trauma as it at the heart of so many mental health issues. I have a wide range of expertise in CBT, CAT and Transactional Analysis, and my aim is to offer a tailor-made, integrative approach for every client, in a safe, supportive and confidential environment.
