About Helping Hanz
Private CBT Therapy in Cumbria
Your Partner in Wellness
I have created Helping Hanz to provide a compassionate mental health therapy practice in Cumbria, dedicated to supporting individuals of all ages, in building meaningful, independent, and balanced lives by addressing common mental health difficulties such as anxiety, low mood, OCD and trauma and how these impact your functioning.
I provide client-centred Occupational Therapy services alongside evidence-based Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) strategies to address both functional and emotional well-being. I am based in Cumbria and am located in Northeast Cumbria near Brampton, Carlisle. I welcome clients into a homely and cozy environment where they can feel at ease. Other locations can be negotiated if required.
I believe healing is a journey. Like the lotus, growth can emerge even from life’s most challenging moments. I provide a safe, supportive space where clients will feel understood, capable, and supported every step of the way.o

Evidence-based cognitive behavioural therapy supports individuals to reflect on their current difficulties to establish the link between their thoughts, feelings and behaviours, which allows you to discover what’s keeping you stuck. Collaboratively we formulate the right intervention for you to reach your goals. This can be for individuals or for child & parent or even for couples to support conflict resolution.
