Valerie is currently only seeing clients through Telehealth 

• Sometimes life can just be difficult. This may be because of everyday problems that are happening now or because of past experiences.
• Some people may have a clearly defined problem such as anxiety or depression, others may just  have a sense that life could be better
• Psychological therapy can help. It can give you new perspectives and the skills to handle these difficulties now and in the future.

Valerie offers psychological therapy for adults in a supportive collaborative partnership between herself and her client. She believes that it is essential to listen closely to clients and to tailor therapy to them and their particular experiences.

Valerie also believes that it is important to provide evidenced based therapy, that is, therapy whose effectiveness is supported by research. Usually Valerie works within a cognitive behavioural or interpersonal therapy framework but may also use other therapies such as mindfulness if she considers that these are in the best interest of her client.

Valerie brings maturity, experience and a broad background to her practice.
