Dr Sinem Tekes (DClinPsy, PgDip, MSc, BSc) 
Clinical Psychologist & CBT Therapist
​Adult Mental Health, Mood and Anxiety Disorders 

Picture
Hello my name is Sinem and I am a Clinical Psychologist offer remote/online therapy only. Prior to my training I worked with children with autism and trained in techniques of Applied Behaviour Analysis. I completed my doctoral training at The Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, King’s College London and have also undertaken postgraduate training in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and am a BABCP accredited CBT therapist. I offer remote therapy online. 

I have over 10 years experience of working within the NHS in a variety of settings including adult and child mental health services, health psychology and neuropsychological services (assessment and rehabilitation). 
​

I am also fluent in Swedish.

My main specialism involves delivering evidence-based cognitive behaviour therapy to a  range of difficulties including depression, general anxiety, social anxiety, post-traumatic stress, OCD, panic, health anxiety and phobias including emetophobia. In addition to CBT, I use compassion focused therapy to help people develop a kinder approach to their difficulties.

I am passionate about helping people understand what is keeping their difficulties going, learning skills to overcome them and to live a life that is meaningful to them. I believe that working together and forming a strong therapeutic relationship is essential to gaining positive outcomes and reaching therapy goals. I am friendly, warm and laid back and endevaour to help my clients feel supported throughout their therapy journey. 

I am fully registered with the Health Care Professional Council as a Registered Clinical Psychologist: PYL35344
