Experienced CBT Therapist

Interest in Psychology

Cheryl has always had an interest in human behaviour, and on leaving school her initial studies centred around psychology.

As a nurse, she always enjoyed spending time talking to patients, rather than being task oriented, which led to her decision to train as a dedicated CBT therapist.

Alongside her practice, Cheryl loves to travel and has spent a large part of her life living in South Africa. She plays rugby for a ladies rugby team, and takes part in paddle-boarding and cycling. She also enjoys spending time with her two energetic collie dogs, who keep her on her toes.
