Anxiety can be a deeply challenging experience affecting us both mentally and physically. It often manifests as persistent worry, restlessness and catastrophic thinking. The physical experience of anxiety can include; increased heart rate, trembling, sweating and tightness in the chest making daily life difficult. Using Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) we can work to reframe your negative thought patterns and equip you with coping techniques and relaxation tools.

Struggling with low self-esteem can be incredibly challenging and can impact many aspects of life. You feel this ever present sense of inadequacy or self-doubt overshadowing your everyday interactions and decisions. But you're not alone in this and seeking therapy can be a crucial step toward healing. Therapeutic support for self-esteem focuses on identifying negative thought patterns, building self-awareness and most importantly fostering self compassion. It's about rewiring your inner dialogue to be kinder and more accepting. Every small step towards self-acceptance and positivity matters. 

Personality shifts also known as personality disorders are enduring patterns of behaviour, thoughts, and inner experiences that deviate from societal expectations. You may struggle with interpersonal relationships, self-image, and emotional regulation. Treatment typically involves a combination of medication and psychotherapy.
