What to Expect...
You may be feeling...
Many people seek therapy without a clear diagnosis.
Psychotherapy offers a supportive space to explore these challenges and move towards greater clarity, confidence and emotional wellbeing.
What is the structure?
“Use this space to share reviews from customers about the products or services offered.”
Check-In:
You talk about your week, what went well, what was difficult, and any updates on your mood or symptoms.
Set Goals:
We decide what to focus on in that session. CBT is goal-oriented, so every session has a clear purpose.
Explore Thoughts and Feelings:
You’ll discuss situations that caused stress, anxiety, or low mood, & identify the thoughts and beliefs behind them.
Learn and Practice Skills:
I will guide you to challenge unhelpful thoughts. This could include exercises like thought records, relaxation techniques, or behavioural experiments.
Homework:
CBT is practical, so you’ll usually get small exercises or reflections to practice between sessions. This helps reinforce what you learn.
Review:
At the end of the session, we summarise key points and plan what to focus on next.
How will the session feel?
In therapy sessions, I take a person-centred and collaborative approach. I provide enough structure to help our work feel focused and purposeful, with clear goals and measures of progress, while also creating a space where you feel safe to explore whatever feels important to you. I draw on a range of therapeutic tools and we work together to discover what supports you best.
I am particularly passionate about the mind–body connection. I believe emotional wellbeing is not just about thoughts, but also about how we relate to our bodies, emotions, and nervous systems.
These sessions are for you, so I welcome your feedback and adapt to your needs. If you want to take a different direction or a technique isn’t resonating, you’re encouraged to share, and I’ll adjust accordingly.
Something I deeply value as a therapist is authenticity and safety. I aim to offer a warm, non-judgemental space where you can speak openly and honestly, without feeling rushed or analysed. I don’t believe therapy should feel overly clinical — at its heart, it’s about a compassionate human relationship that should feel healing, and support meaningful change.

Why CBT?
CBT is a highly effective evidence based therapy,
considered the gold standard of mental health treatment
by the National Institute of Clincal Excellence.
It explores not just the past but what is happening now. It helps you understand how your thoughts, feelings and behaviours are connected: Spotting patterns and learning practical ways to change them
I had CBT with Holly for OCD, and it completely changed my life, I never thought I could overcome my intrusive thoughts til I did therapy!

I worked with Holly through my employer on stress management and building confidence at work, the CBT tools and techniques I learnt in sessions were extremely helpful

Holly worked with me on imposter syndrome I was experiencing at work, therapy was transformative for me in excelling at my job, I now can bounce back from mistakes better, and can switch off after work rather than spiralling!
