CBT Therapy & Mindfulness St Albans - Specialising in Anxiety
Private Therapy in Person or Online

I genuinely love what I do — and that passion sits at the heart of my work as a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist and Mindfulness Teacher.

I’m deeply committed to CBT and Mindfulness because I see, every day, the meaningful difference they can make in people’s lives.

I believe everyone can benefit from understanding ourselves better. CBT focuses on the powerful connection between our thoughts, feelings and behaviours, giving you insight into why you feel the way you do and how change is possible.  At it's core, mindfulness helps us slow down and notice what’s happening right now, rather than being pulled into worries about the future or replaying the past.

CBT is not about “fixing” you — because you are not broken. Instead, it’s about helping you make sense of what’s going on, identifying unhelpful patterns and learning healthier ways to respond to life’s challenges with greater clarity, confidence and self-compassion.

Working together, we’ll explore what’s keeping you stuck and develop practical coping strategies you can use both during sessions and in everyday life. The aim is to help you feel more in control, so change feels manageable, empowering, and long-lasting.

You Don’t Have to Do This Alone

If you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, low in mood, or simply want a deeper understanding of yourself, CBT can offer a supportive and structured way forward. Taking the first step can feel daunting — but it can also be the beginning of real, meaningful change.

I’d love to support you on that journey.
Book a session today and let’s work together to help you move forward with confidence and clarity.

Welcome to my Private Practice offering CBT and Mindfulness:

Your Path to Improved Wellbeing

Why sessions with me? 

I don’t believe therapy should be a one-size-fits-all process.

You’re unique, and what helps you move forward will be too.

While I draw on CBT and Mindfulness, our sessions won’t follow a strict formula — we’ll shape the work around what feels right and useful for you.

 

Some days that might mean exploring patterns of thought and behaviour; other days it might be about simply slowing down and making sense of what’s happening for you or introducing a Mindfulness Practice.

Alongside my CBT qualification, I am also a trained Mental Health Employment Specialist, with experience working within the Individual Placement and Support (IPS) programme. This means I understand first-hand how closely mental health and work can be connected, and how difficulties in one area can impact the other.
