CBT Therapist Alicia: Break Negative Cycles, Reach Goals (EN)
Video transcript
Hi, my name is Alicia and I am a CBT therapist. For those of you who are unsure what CBT is, CBT focuses on identifying the negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that you may have, the negative cycles that you're maybe stuck in, exploring a little bit about why we're stuck in these types of cycles, and then providing tools and techniques to help break those cycles and to help you move forward a little bit more positively. I do use a talking therapy approach in session as well. I find this can be really effective, along with CBT tools and techniques to help clients reach their goals. So my background is quite varied. I have worked in both NHS and private practice. My therapeutic approach is really relaxed, quite informal. I provide really safe, warm, empathetic space for all of my clients. So if you have any questions or the science what you're looking for, please reach out today. Thank you.
Are you struggling with anxiety or low mood? Wanting to work on your self-esteem? Struggling to overcome trauma? CBT can help with all the above symptoms. My sessions are solution-focused; helping to identify negative or unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, while providing tools and techniques to help you move forward more positively.
Bio
My therapeutic approach is relaxed and informal with a focus on the ‘now’ and how we together, can help you move forward more positively. I believe that building a strong rapport with my clients is the key to effective counselling. I offer talking therapy as well as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) which can be used jointly in session to help you achieve your goals. I have worked with clients with a wide range of symptoms from low mood and anxiety to OCD and trauma. CBT is solution-focused; helping to identify negative or unhelpful thoughts and behaviours, and then provides the tools such as thought records and journals to identify the root of the problem, and how we can best help you move to a more positive path. CBT works on providing practical tools that allows the client to make positive changes. I am extremely passionate about mental health and provide a safe, empathetic and confidential environment for my clients.
