I'm Joey, a therapist trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) with a passion for growth and self-discovery. Over time, I've developed an approach I call adapted CBT, which blends traditional CBT with other therapeutic methods to create a personalised experience that values the uniqueness of you. One of the key approaches I integrate is Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT), which explo...res how relationships and early relational patterns shape our identity. Alongside this, I use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which promotes self-awareness, helping you connect with your values and make meaningful decisions that align with who you truly are.



Compassion Focused Therapy is another important part of my work, as it helps cultivate a kind, non-judgmental understanding of your thoughts and emotions. This approach allows us to observe, without shame or criticism, how we react to challenges and guides us toward self-forgiveness and emotional healing through mindfulness and compassion. While I’m less formally trained in Existential Therapy, it often arises naturally in my sessions as we explore life’s deeper questions—such as finding purpose or dealing with uncertainty, fear, or loss.



In all my work, I prioritise a person-centred, pluralistic approach that places you at the heart of the therapeutic experience. Therapy is tailored to your unique needs, and together, we'll discover the tools and strategies that support you best on this path. Whether you're struggling with low mood, anxiety, adult ADHD, ASD, grief, loss or trauma, if you’re motivated to change and ready to start therapy now, I’m here to help.
