Experience Personalised Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Your Mental Well-being
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers a personalised approach to mental well-being, focusing on identifying and altering negative thought patterns and behaviours that contribute to emotional distress. By tailoring therapy to your unique challenges and goals, CBT ensures a more effective and targeted intervention.

CBT Online
Online therapy is a convenient and effective way to access support. From the comfort of your own space, you can conveniently schedule sessions that suit you. Online treatment offers advantages like reduced transportation costs and increased privacy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is well-suited for online therapy. CBT uses techniques such as thought challenging, exposure therapy and behavioural experiments, which can be adapted for online sessions. With digital tools and resources, I can provide quality care and build a positive therapeutic relationship, just like in traditional in-person therapy.
Group Workshops
If you're looking to empower yourself by learning more about the psychology of different problems, CBT workshops can be very effective. Through group activities and discussions, you can learn about the causes and symptoms of your issues and techniques for managing anxiety-related behaviours. Group workshops can also provide a space for you to share your experiences, gain support from others, build self-confidence and develop healthier relationships. I guide you every step of the way and explain various strategies to help you grow through challenges that many people can relate to.
In-Person Therapy
Discover personal growth through in-person CBT sessions in Edinburgh. I provide individual therapy sessions in the city centre, conveniently located near Haymarket train station, with easy access via tram, train, or bus. These sessions offer a serene space for relaxation and self-reflection, supporting your journey of self-discovery. Life is full of unexpected twists, but through my therapy sessions, you can learn to harness your ability to make choices and effectively navigate the ups and downs that come your way.
Book a Discovery Call
Book here for a relaxed, exploratory call. It's a chance for us to connect, talk about what you're looking for, and see if working together feels like the right fit. There's no pressure or obligation, just a conversation.
Managing Anxiety
Worrying is exhausting. The same thoughts circle your head; you crave quiet from the constant cloud of fear. It is hard to sleep, concentrate and motivate yourself to do things because of the continuous noise in your mind. Anxiety can be a debilitating experience, and it can be hard to know the route to calm. Through Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), you can acquire the skills to recognise the thoughts and behaviours that fuel your anxiety, and you can discover more constructive methods to manage and alleviate your symptoms.
Overcoming Depression
Sometimes our lives can become profoundly unfulfilling, painful and demanding, and we don't even know why things are so tough. Perhaps we've become trapped by past events or can't imagine a better tomorrow because today feels futile. Faced with this, we can turn to coping strategies that may have helped initially but are now making things more challenging. I can help bring attention to your deepest feelings, explore how your past affects your life today and release the burden of the past that you may be bearing, perhaps without even realising it. By becoming more mindful of your thoughts and behaviour patterns, you can shine a light through the fog to a clear path forward.
Conquering OCD
Living with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) can feel overwhelming and isolating, as intrusive thoughts and repetitive behaviours start to control your life. These patterns may provide temporary relief but ultimately reinforce anxiety and distress. Using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), I offer targeted OCD treatment in Edinburgh to help you break the cycle. Together, we’ll identify the triggers of your compulsions, challenge obsessive thoughts and develop healthier coping strategies. Treatment can help you to regain control of your life with evidence-based Exposure and Response Prevention for OCD.
"You have considerable power to construct self-helping thoughts, feelings and actions."​
