Psychologist, CBT Therapist, FMBPsS, MA (Hons), MSc, CertCouns, MSc
I'm experienced in providing Cognitive Behaviour Therapy and ACT for clients who have problems with substance misuse, and clients who have addictions to social media, the internet, youtube, computer games and gambling, including clients who struggle with these addictions whilst also having ADHD or ADD. I have experience of supporting clients who have a previous substance misuse or alcohol misuse problem, and clients whose partner, parent, child, or other family member has a substance/ alcohol misuse problem, and the challenges that come with these difficulties.

Do you have addictive tendencies? Is your behaviour around certain substances - or habits - exaggerated and unhelpful? Are you worried or scared that you are harming yourself and/or others? Is there addiction in your family or your ancestry? What has brought you to read this page on addiction right now? Let´s explore these questions, and more, together.
If you are addicted to alcohol, drugs, bad relationships, food or shopping we will work together to identify the triggers and reasons you are behaving this way. This may require you seeking additional help from AA or similar to give you the best opportunity to change your life to a more satisfying way of living. I offer a safe and boundaried space in which to explore your thoughts, feelings and behaviour.
I support clients on leaving rehab to continue therapeutic care once detoxed. Drugs and alcohol are not the root cause issue, managing life is the real challenge.
