About me
Rowan Wells Bsc (Hons), PgCert (CBT), PgDip (CBT), MBABCP
Hello! My name is Rowan and I’m a qualified Cognitive Behaviour Psychotherapist. I have completed a degree in Psychology and two further post-graduate qualifications specialising in CBT (Cognitive Behaviour Therapy). I have also completed further training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT). I am a member of the British Association of Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP).
I work both privately and in NHS mental health services and have experience supporting individuals suffering from stress, worry, panic, generalised anxiety, health anxiety, social anxiety, depression, post-natal depression, low self-esteem, body dysmorphic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder and specific phobias.
What is CBT?
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) is an evidenced based talking therapy which helps you to develop an understanding of your emotional difficulties and learn to manage these difficulties by changing the way you think and behave.
How it works
When we feel anxious or low we can fall into patterns of unhelpful thinking and behaving (e.g. avoidance or worry) which can maintain negative emotions or worsen how we feel. CBT is based on the concept that your thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and behaviours are interconnected and that if we can change one area, this can alter the others and help you to improve your overall wellbeing. CBT helps to empower individuals and involves practicing skills to manage current difficulties in a healthier way.
CBT is recommended by the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) for the treatment of many mood and anxiety disorders.
CBT Sessions
Entering therapy can be an anxiety provoking experience and therefore I offer
a calm, non-judgemental approach and work at the client’s own pace.
Number of sessions
CBT is a short term problem focused therapy.
It is difficult to say exactly how many sessions a client will need
as every individual is different however most of my treatment
courses are between 6 to 20 sessions.
Frequency
Treatment sessions are offered on a weekly basis.
Duration
Sessions last approximately 50 minutes each.
Location
I am currently offering video sessions via Microsoft Teams from the comfort of your own home.
Pricing
Sessions cost £80 per session, which can be paid by internet bank transfer.
If you are interested in purchasing a bundle of 6 sessions, I will offer a discounted price of £450 (£75 per session).
Availability
I offer appointments on Monday mornings, Wednesday evenings or Thursday afternoons.
