I am Kirstie Wright an experienced psychotherapist and founder of Creatives in Mind, and am trained primarily using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). This means the sessions are focused on helping you to reach a goal and overcome a particular problem.
The sessions involve developing an understanding of your difficulties and recognising why you are experiencing the difficulty you want to work on. We then develop a plan on how to overcome that difficulty. Click here for more information on what CBT is.
Individual therapy with therapists who understand your industry can help you reach the goals you want to and improve your wellbeing.
