CBT for OCD during the pandemic

June 17, 2021 Dave McCartney

CBT is an amazing tool and is applicable to any situation in life!

I developed OCD in the middle of my PhD which got worse during the pandemic. I tried to cope by myself but when it got so bad, I didn't eat or work anymore. I decided I should do some therapy. Sarah had been recommended to me and we had a journey together to accept my OCD and work to overcome it and live with it. After 20 sessions I live (nearly) as normal as before, I can work and I feel hopeful about finishing my PhD. I feel I cope really well with the pandemic. My mental health is even better than before my OCD developed. CBT is an amazing tool and is applicable to any situation in life! I definitely recommend working with Sarah using CBT!

CBT for Depression and Anxiety

April 9, 2021 Dave McCartney

I am writing this during the third lockdown and yet I feel more resilient and better able to cope. 

When I contacted Sarah, I felt panicky, down and exhausted. I had started to withdraw from others and felt hopeless. I felt flat although there was a feeling of being constantly wound up in the background. I have always been successful in my life and yet I just did not know how to deal with how I felt at the time, which was incredibly frustrating. 

I had thought that it was my life situation which was largely contributing to how I felt. Working with Sarah

I developed insight into how I was approaching my current events and how to make the correct changes for myself. 
I now feel so much more in control of my behaviour and thinking. I feel calmer and more positive. I am writing this during the third lockdown and yet I feel more resilient and better able to cope.
