A very warm welcome to my site!
Hi there, I'm Stephen Anderson, an Accredited CBT Therapist, EMDR Therapist and Couples Therapist.
I appreciate that finding someone who you feel comfortable to talk to and is able to meet your therapy needs, may seem like quite a daunting task. My therapy style is one of compassion and kindness, in providing a space where you can feel truly heard and understood. I see great value in the therapeutic relationship, to helping explore and address the challenges you may be facing.
I have over 15years of experience in the NHS, and more than 20years experience working with people with mental health difficulties. I continue to work in an NHS service using the above approaches, as well as facilitating groups and supervising staff members in the team

Therapy Options
If you are unsure of which therapy approach is going to be right for you, I am more than happy to guide you through the options listed below. I can be flexible in agreeing a treatment plan that is going to be the most helpful for your needs.

CBT aims to identify and break patterns of negative thinking and behaviour. It can help address several difficulties related to stress, anxiety, low mood and depression

EMDR is an evidence based approach designed to reduce the distress associated with past traumatic experiences, or memories
