Eve Beh is a clinical psychologist with years of experience in both public and private settings. She is committed to working with her clients to improve their quality of life using proven psychological techniques. Eve works with adults to assist with problems including:

• Depression and low mood
• Anxiety disorders - panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, generalised anxiety disorder, social anxiety, phobias, stress
• Emotional dysregulation
• Relationship issues
• Interpersonal issues, such as assertiveness, social skills training
• Low self-esteem
• Perfectionism

People see a psychologist for many reasons. Sometimes the effects of a condition such as depression are debilitating, affecting one's ability to work. The simplest tasks seem impossible, relationships are affected, and the individual may feel completely overwhelmed and hopeless. At other times, a person may have issues that are not a disorder but may feel confused or stuck in life and may find it helpful to discuss it with someone who is objective. It is certainly not the case that only people who are mentally unwell benefit from seeing a health professional. You may feel that you are very happy with most aspects of your life but have an area in which you see some difficulties or in which you are not achieving as well as you would like. You may feel that it is now time to address these issues, and get some help to make changes.

 Eve uses primarily a cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) or Schema Therapy (ST) approach. They have both been shown in research to be effective for many problems. In both of them, the thinking patterns and behaviours which maintain a person's problems are addressed in order to bring about positive changes and reduce distress.

Both CBT and ST are structured, time-limited and active. To begin with, therapy is structured in order to achieve the best use of time. Goals are agreed upon, and during therapy Eve will work with her clients to achieve those goals. CBT and ST are active in that it is best for individuals undergoing therapy to take an active part in helping themselves in their life situations. Skills are learnt in sessions and it has been found that generally, the most benefit is derived from therapy when these skills are practiced between sessions. The extent to which clients do active work between sessions is a significant factor which affects the rate of progress in therapy.. The difference is that CBT treatment is usually a short-term therapy, usually requiring between 6 and 14 sessions, although this varies, whereas Schema Therapy is generally a medium or longer-term therapy. Schema Therapy shares many of the components of CBT but also incorporates experiential and interpersonal techniques.  

 A comprehensive assessment is conducted in the first session to gain a thorough understanding of the problem. This gives a client a chance to discuss what they would like to achieve or work on in therapy. While Eve primarily uses CBT or ST, her theraputic approach is also informed by other modalities, such as dialectical behaviour therapy, mindfulness and compassion-focussed therapy. 

If your difficulties are beyond her areas of expertise, Eve will speak to you about other options for treatment.
