I am an BABCP-accredited High Intensity CBT psychotherapist working in the NHS. I previously worked for several years with women diagnosed as having Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder (formerly Borderline Personality Disorder) who had experienced complex trauma, but also have experience working with psychosis, depression, mania and other so-called serious mental illnesses, as well as a variety of anxiety disorders. I would class myself as an existentialist with Buddhist leanings.
