Welcome, I’m Tom…
I’m a CBT Therapist working in Cornwall and online
… more about CBT or Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in a little while.
You might be looking for a therapist because things aren’t feeling so good at the moment or maybe you’re looking for some support to stop things getting worse………
These bad thoughts...
It might be that you’re noticing unhelpful, unwanted or negative thoughts that are impacting your emotions.
Or perhaps those thoughts and feelings are getting in the way of you doing the things you need and want to do, or stopping you living the life you want to live.
Your mental struggle...
Lots of people struggle with their mental health. One of the issues with mental health difficulties is that we can’t see them.
It’s not like you have broken a bone and people can see the plaster. Mental health is inside us.
But others are fine...
When we look at other people and they appear to be fine on the outside, we imagine that’s true on the inside too.
And when we don’t feel okay, this can add to the feeling that there is something wrong with us – that we are broken or defective in some way. But that’s not the case.
…and this is where I might be able to help.
Therapist trained in CBT...
I am a therapist trained in CBT which is a type of therapy that helps you understand what might be reinforcing or maintaining your mental health difficulties.
We then use this understanding to help you change your thinking patterns and get out of the ‘vicious cycle’ you might be stuck in.
Magic Powers...
I don’t have any magic powers, magic answers or the solution to every problem in the world, but I do have the knowledge, expertise and experience of CBT that will help us explore and understand your difficulties and find a way forward together.
