new mindset CBT is a virtual clinic specializing in anxiety, PTSD and related conditions.

I use Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) to help you set realistic goals, learn new ways to respond to your negative thoughts, and change the behaviours that hold you back from living your best life. You are active in therapy, which helps maintain your progress in the long-term.

My aim is to work with you to help increase your confidence, and address the fears holding you back. If you think new mindset CBT is right for you, contact me for a free 15-minute phone consultation.

Offers:  Remote Therapy

It can be daunting attending therapy for the first time and talking about personal issues. Your relationship with your therapist is the most important factor in your success; you need to feel a connection in terms of communication, trust, comfort and safety during your sessions. I therefore offer a complimentary, no-obligation call so we can chat with no expectations or pressure. You do not fit in a pre-made mould and neither should your therapy. As such, I implement a blended therapeutic approach which is client-centered; this means you are in the driver’s seat at all times. I work only with proven, evidence-based approaches including Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) & Solution Focused Therapy (SFT).

Hello there… As crazy as it might sound, patterns of anxiety, depression, controllingness, addiction, self automation (and others that one may fall into) are all learning environments – challenging us to search for ways to heal self and others. Our world gets better each time one of us takes such steps. After almost fifty years doing this work with others as well as with my self, I can assure you it is worth it. I’ll characterize my approach as practical/spiritual/integrative – and informal : > )
