ABOUT ME
In 2018, I opened the doors to my clinic with the goal of providing patients in Falkirk with top-of-the-line mental health services. Whether you’re looking for a bit of counseling, or need professional assistance overcoming a traumatic experience - your wellbeing is my number one priority. I go above and beyond to cater to the needs of every patient with my personalized services.
My journey to becoming a CBT psychotherapist was not a straight one or without the odd bump. My life had not gone to plan when I made the decision to have a total career change and train to become a psychotherapist. To be honest I have never looked back CBT has changed my whole out look on life, has boasted my self-esteem and created feelings of self-worth. I was at a very low point before I made the change and you could say I have earned my mental health scares, I have been in the dark places my clients are in and I came through the other end, with the help and support of therapy and CBT
During my training I worked with two local charities. One who supports survivor’s of childhood sexual abuse and trauma, the other who has a more general client base. I have continued to work with the 2nd charity, which gives me a broad range of clients with a variety of problems ensuring that my skills stay sharp in many areas.
Prior to retraining I worked in the hospitality industry and service industry. During my training I worked with vulnerable families offering housing support. I continued to work in this sector with the homeless till the time was right to set up my own practice.
I believe in a positive, solution focused approach. I am warm, patient and empathetic towards my clients. I am very familiar with the mountain you feel you have to climb to feel better, but you don’t have to do it alone.
