Katrina Tickle

Professional Profile

My name is Katrina and I am a fully qualified and BABCP accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist working with Think CBT from my consulting rooms in Inverness. I also provide therapy online using Zoom.

I have undertaken training in Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) in which I have done additional training which enables me to work with children and families.

I have a Masters in Applied Psychology for children and young people and have experience of working with children and families experiencing psychological distress.

I take pride in adapting and applying psychological principles with children in a fun and engaging way to support them to engage in the process. I also have experience in working with parents in a collaborative way to support their children to find helpful coping strategies.

In addition to my NHS role in a Children and Adolescents Mental Health Service, I run a small private practice where I also offer therapeutic work to adults.

Throughout my career I have gained extensive experience with a wide range of psychological, emotional and behavioural problems and have been able to apply therapy in a creative and engaging way to both children and adults in a tailored and individual way. I have experience in treating Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Anxiety disorders, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, self esteem and depression. My specialist areas of interest include OCD and Trauma.

I work within an evidence-based way and receive regular supervision to ensure that the therapy I deliver is effective at supporting my clients to achieve their goals in a sustainable way.

I believe a good working relationship is essential for therapy and have a friendly, collaborative, creative and down to earth method of working.
