CBT Therapist in Margate for Anxiety & OCD

I specialise in helping people reduce anxiety, overcome fear and regain a sense of confidence and freedom, so you can live the life you want, rather than the life anxiety dictates.

Perhaps anxiety has started to affect your relationships, work, social life or the things you used to enjoy. You may find yourself avoiding situations, constantly seeking reassurance, overthinking, checking, worrying about your health, or feeling trapped in cycles of thoughts and behaviours that are difficult to switch off.

Sometimes you may know that your fears are excessive or irrational, but knowing this doesn’t necessarily make them feel any less real. You might find yourself thinking, Why can’t I just stop worrying? or Why does my brain keep doing this?

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone and importantly, you don’t have to stay stuck in these patterns.

I specialise in working with:

• OCD – managing intrusive thoughts, compulsions, checking, reassurance seeking and mental rituals.

• Social anxiety – helping you feel more comfortable and confident around other people, without constantly worrying about how you are being perceived.

• Health anxiety – reducing the cycle of checking, researching, reassurance seeking and fearing that the worst is happening in your body.

• Panic – understanding what is happening in your body and learning how to reduce panic attacks.

• Body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) – supporting you to break free from preoccupation, checking and comparing yourself, developing a healthier relationship with your appearance.

• Generalised anxiety – helping you step out of the cycle of excessive worrying, overthinking and anticipating the worst.
