⭐️ Addiction Specialist (MSc, FDAP) ⭐️ Psychotherapist (MBACP) ⭐️ Personal Trainer (CYQ) ⭐️ Teacher ⭐️ Published Author ⭐️ Researcher ⭐️ iheart Facilitator As the founder of Thought Based Therapy, an addiction recovery based service which is a responsive alternative to 12 Step and SMART, I am extremely passionate, dedicated and committed to helping all people overcome their addictive and compulsive behaviours and processes to be the best possible versions of themselves they can be- A version of themselves they don’t even know yet. A version of themselves they haven’t even met yet. A version of themselves that they are going to fall in love with, who they NEVER want to escape from and one who they will want to be with for the rest of their lives! ❤️♾❤️ Know that #recoveryispossible #addictionisreal #itistimetounderstand #itsallthought so #makeithappen #be #you #now 😉💪💥🚀 As a researcher, I am continuously pushing the boundaries whereby my most noted piece was the worlds first article published combining metacognitions and parenting styles as predictors of cannabis use! 💥💥💥 Following this I have gone on to write a chapter in a book due to be released this year by Cambridge Press surrounding exercise addiction! 💪💪💪 I have also contributed to numerous other articles and collaborated with many talented writers and have many more projects in the pipeline so do watch this space! 😉🤫👊 In a former existence... I was a DJ on the worlds longest running jungle/drum and bass radio station Kool FM 945 for over 10 years! 🎧 I also used to play football at a serious level too for Brentford and Arsenal and painted walls as a graffiti artist back in the day... but we won’t say much about that one! 🤫 I love my food, my fitness and anything mental health related and this is where my work as an iheart facilitator comes into the fray as before I became a therapist, I was a teacher for the best part of 20 years! 💖 I specialise in working with young people who struggled to flourish in a range of environments and as for me it’s all about prevention, preventing their emotional fires from starting at this young age so they do not turn into the raging inferno’s that a lot of my adult client population present with. So, if I can be of assistance to you, if you can learn from my story or grow from some of the services my company can offer, then please do get in touch as it would be my pleasure to connect with you 😊🙏💖 Peace, love and recovery!
