PSYCHOTHERAPY
In-person in Glasgow
Psychotherapy is talk therapy where a trained therapist can help
clients come to therapy with a wide range of struggles and difficulties in their lives. Psychotherapy encompasses many approaches, one of which is Cognitive‑Behavioural Therapy (CBT). CBT focuses on the way you think, act, and feel, helping you develop new coping skills. It is effective for numerous concerns, including depression (such as post‑natal depression), anxiety (including phobias and obsessive‑compulsive disorder), trauma, and more. Even when a client does not fit these specific categories, CBT can still be valuable for anyone who feels stuck.
Other evidence‑based modalities include Mindfulness‑Based Cognitive Therapy, Schema Therapy, and Emotionally Focused Therapy, among others. Therapists often integrate several of these approaches to create a more comprehensive, personalized plan for supporting each client. Psychotherapy - using CBT as a baseline - can support but is not limited to:
Mild to intense sadness
low confidence/low self-esteem
social anxiety (public speaking, large groups of people, speaking to new people)
generalised anxiety where it feels you worry about everything, all the time
performance anxiety
sex anxiety
a traumatic event that happened more than 6 months ago
procrastinating
burn out
setting impossibly high standards, leading to constant self-criticism, fear of failure
difficulties with stopping alcohol and drugs use
difficulties stopping excessive use of sex and pornography
grief
loss
relationships and intimacy after trauma
INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
Focuses on several aspects including 1) getting comfortable in the space and building trust with the therapist. 2) exploring challenging experiences; noticing the thoughts, feelings, sensations, and beliefs, and 3) learning about self, as well as, new techniques to support emotional wellbeing and physical wellness.

FOR ALL SCHEME
Accessibility to mental health is vitally important, but one of the biggest hurdles are finances.
To contribute to my community, I offer a sliding fee scale to create more financial options for people seeking therapy services, but I also wanted to pay it forward.
The For All scheme (FAS) is where people in circumstances for which paying for therapy isn’t an option can submit a request for my services for 100% free of fees up to 24 sessions. After 24 sessions, you are eligible to move to a Pay What You Can model with a minimum fee of £10.
NOTE: I am currently not accepting new FAS clients at this time.
