Professional Profile

My name is Roger and I am a fully qualified and BABCP accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist working with Think CBT from my consulting rooms in Canterbury (CT1) and Whitstable.

I have over 12 years experience working as a therapist within the NHS, the voluntary and private sector. Many of my clients appreciate my professionalism as well as my personal traits including being approachable, compassionate and non-judgemental.

As well as being able to provide evidence based CBT treatment for a range of mental health difficulties, I am also trained to incorporate '3rd wave' CBT approaches including Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Schema Therapy.

I am keen to work in a highly collaborative way with my clients and will provide an individual formulation and tailored sessions to meet your needs.

I specialise in working with clients who struggle with self-critical thinking and shame. My main specialist areas are working with eating disorders, PTSD and a range of anxiety/low mood disorders.
