He previously worked as a National Health Service (NHS) Psychotherapist for 20 years and, for 10 of these, was also a tutor and supervisor on the South of Scotland Cognitive Therapy Postgraduate Training Course. He is also trained in other psychotherapies, including systemic psychotherapy. He specialises in working with individuals and people in relationships. Having successfully helped many thousands of clients to manage and overcome their difficulties, open up their possibilities and create new and better 'social worlds', he is very excited about the opportunities CMM offers and is looking forward to bringing this further into the community with the proposed CMM Project.
