Graham’s areas of specialism are OCD (including but not exclusive to) Pure OCD, relationship OCD, Pedophilia OCD, Contamination OCD, Suicidal OCD, Responsibility OCD, Religious OCD, Existential OCD, and Body Dysmorphic Disorder, PTSD, panic disorder, low self-esteem, depression, and the entire spectrum of anxiety disorders. Drawing from personal experience, Graham understands the challenges associated with mental health issues. Graham has struggled with OCD for most of his life, keeping it a secret out of fear of misunderstanding. Whilst OCD remains a part of his life, he has developed a healthier relationship with it, no longer allowing it to dominate his existence.
In addition to CBT and EMDR Graham seamlessly integrates mindfulness, acceptance and commitment therapy, and chair-work into his therapeutic approach. He also draws inspiration from philosophical approaches like Stoicism. He deeply acknowledges the profound impact of shame, guilt, disgust, and confusion, that individuals often grapple with when facing mental health challenges. If you’re uncertain about what’s troubling you or struggling to articulate it, taking steps to explore these uncertainties marks a significant stride in the right direction. Rest assured Graham is here to offer unwavering support throughout your journey.
Therapy, in Graham’s view, is gently turning towards your own suffering with intention and compassion. It’s about fostering growth and recognising your inherent potential. His aim is to provide clients with the best therapeutic interventions, specifically tailored to offer both immediate relief and facilitate long-term positive change.
