What is CBT?
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a talking therapy designed to help you make sense of unhelpful thoughts, feelings, and behaviours — and shift patterns that are keeping you stuck.
It’s a practical, evidence-based approach that explores the link between what we think, how we feel, and what we do. In CBT, we work together to identify what’s keeping your difficulties going, and use proven techniques to bring relief and long-term change.
Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, or just feeling overwhelmed, CBT can offer tools to understand your mind, manage emotions, and respond to life’s challenges in healthier, more flexible ways.
CBT is collaborative — you’re the expert in your own life, and we build the therapy around your goals. It can be structured, but always human.

If you're not sure whether CBT is the right fit for you, you're welcome to get in touch for a free telephone consultation. Therapy is always tailored to your individual needs.
How It Works
1. Free Telephone Consultation
A short, no-pressure phone call to talk through what you're looking for and whether CBT might be a good fit. It's also a chance to ask any questions before deciding to go ahead.
2. Initial Assessment
If you decide to continue, we’ll book a 90-minute assessment session to understand your current difficulties, goals, and whether CBT is the right approach. We’ll begin mapping out a plan together.
3. Treatment Sessions
Sessions are 50 minutes, usually weekly. We’ll work collaboratively using CBT techniques tailored to your needs. Sessions are structured but flexible — always grounded in what matters to you.
4. Remote & Accessible
All sessions are conducted via Microsoft Teams. That means you can access therapy from the comfort and privacy of your own space, with no travel time or added stress.
