About Diane Knight – Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (MNCS Accred)

I’ve found that most people who come to see me are struggling with some form of anxiety or stress, low self worth and/or depression (which they quite often don’t recognise until we complete an inventory!) Worrying about what people think about them, anxious about social events, stressed at work, struggling to juggle everything and taking it out on family members, angry at the injustice of it all, feeling worthless and a lack of hope and teary. These are just some of the things that are creating problems in their lives until they come to see me and we create a shift by developing a rational, helpful mindset! Changing the beliefs.
Using CBT and Integrative Therapy (inc different techniques such as Compassion and Solution Focused Therapy, Mindfulness). With a strong desire to change and in need of some support, we work together using CBT techniques to create the changes that you wish to make. I will train you to become your own therapist so you won’t need me anymore.
I realise how difficult it is taking the first step as i’ve been there! As an empathetic person by nature, I believe I come across as warm, friendly, compassionate and non judgemental. I find clients open up to me very quickly as they trust I have their best interests at heart. You can read the reviews on my website to see what other clients have said.

Specialities include:

* Low self confidence/self-esteem.
* Stress
* Anxiety including panic attacks/disorder, phobias and insomnia
* Low mood, depression, fed up and struggling to cope/feeling stuck
* Relationship difficulties, family or work issues
* Grief
* OCD
* IBS

CBT is based on the concept that your thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and actions are interconnected, and that negative thoughts and feelings can trap you in a vicious cycle.

It’s a collaborative and goal-directed talking therapy, which means we work together to discover any unhelpful thoughts or behaviours you may hold and set goals for the future.

It’s very structured and I would expect for you will notice the difference in the way you feel about your situation after 10 – 15 sessions. The aim of my approach is to help my clients learn CBT problem solving skills so that you then can become your own therapist.

We will work at the pace you feel comfortable with and everything you tell me is confidential.

I am authentic in my approach and I place great importance on compassion and self acceptance.
