  • Our approach

    Christine adopts a warm and flexible approach to therapy, viewing her role as a facilitator rather than an expert. She uses evidence-based research to guide her therapeutic methods, including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindfulness and other therapeutic approaches. Sessions aim to help you understand your situation, develop new strategies for approaching your problems, and gain a different perspective. There is usually an educational component to sessions, and Christine invites regular reviews with clients to ensure that sessions remain helpful and useful.

  • Your first visit

    At your first appointment, you can expect to discuss your feelings, behaviour, relationships, goals or problems in a way that helps the psychologist understand your situation as you see it. Before your first session, you will be asked to fill out an appointment request form with information about your availability and what you're hoping to get from your appointments. When you arrive, there is a 60-minute appointment slot (with a maximum 50-minute clinical session), which includes time for scheduling your next appointment if needed and completing payment. The practice will contact you to book a suitable time and provide you with more information about what to expect.
