Sally Tribe

Professional Profile

My name is Sally, and I am a fully qualified, BABCP-accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist working with Think CBT in Poole, as well as offering online therapy via secure video appointments.

I have over 20 years’ experience working in mental health across a range of settings, including NHS primary care psychological services, HM Prison Service, private practice, and corporate and occupational mental health services.

I work with a wide range of difficulties, with specialist interests in OCD, health anxiety, panic disorder, PTSD, phobias, social anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, body dysmorphic disorder, generalised anxiety disorder, and women’s mental health, particularly during perimenopause and menopause. I have also completed additional training in Behavioural Couples Therapy (BCT) and work with relationship difficulties, infidelity, couples affected by OCD, and the emotional impact of long-term health conditions. Alongside my clinical work, I chair the Women’s Special Interest Group at the BABCP.

In addition to my therapy practice, I am an experienced supervisor and trainer. I am the CBT Lead at the University of Bath and work as a supervisor and trainer at the King’s College London Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience.

I am passionate about providing high-quality, evidence-based CBT that is tailored to each individual. I work collaboratively with clients to develop a shared understanding of the factors maintaining their difficulties and to build practical tools and strategies that support lasting change. My aim is to help you become your own therapist, leaving treatment with greater confidence, understanding, and resilience.

I currently offer therapy via video conferencing and telephone appointments. Remote CBT has been shown to be as effective as face-to-face therapy while offering greater flexibility to access support at a time and place that suits you.

I work in accordance with the ethical standards and professional guidelines of the BABCP and hold full professional indemnity insurance to practise as a therapist in the UK.
