Hello, I am a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (CBT). CBT makes sense to me, and I really enjoy using this evidenced based therapy to help people address areas in their life which are not working for them. If you are looking for help with low mood, anxiety, panic, obsessive compulsive disorder, phobias , anger, relationship problems, goal setting, problem solving, bulimia, low self-esteem, then CBT is a good option.
