My approach

Hi, I’m Rhiannon, a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist and Registered Mental Health Nurse.

My aim is to guide you to lead a more fulfilling life, with less distress and fear and more alignment with your individual values.

I use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Metacognitive Therapy (MCT), which are both evidence based approaches for common mental health conditions.

CBT can be described as practical therapy where you can take control of the changes you wish to make. I find this approach to be particularly helpful if you feel your world has become smaller due to your mental health. Focusing on behaviour change and reducing avoidance can open up possibilities where fear or critical beliefs get in the way. I will work collaboratively with you to identify therapy goals and work towards them at a pace comfortable for you. If you’re struggling with mental rituals and/or compulsions, I would encourage that therapy goals are Exposure Response Prevention (ERP) driven.

MCT is a type of cognitive therapy that focuses on your thinking processes. If you spend a lot of time worrying, ruminating, analysing, threat monitoring or engaging in compulsions then MCT can help to decrease the amount of time you spend giving attention to these processes. This can lead to a decrease in anticipation, emotional distress, hyperawareness, physical symptoms of anxiety and tension.

I am dedicated to continue to learn and grow as a therapist in the best interests of any individual I work with. I know that learning benefits my own mental well-being and I prioritise this as a way of looking after myself too. I regularly develop my professional knowledge to adhere to the standards of the BABCP and out of personal interest and commitment.

If you would like to know more about whether therapy with me is right for you, please book a consultation and we can talk it through together.

Please note there is currently a waiting list for therapy, please email me for further information.
