Clinical Psychologist
I am Dr Cieva Boyle, a HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist with nine years of clinical experience supporting adults experiencing a wide range of psychological difficulties. I have worked across a variety of NHS settings, including community, outpatient, inpatient and primary care services, supporting people with both common and more complex mental health difficulties.
I work predominantly with adults experiencing difficulties such as anxiety disorders, depression, PTSD and trauma, OCD, panic, low self-esteem, emotional difficulties and neurodivergence, as well as people who may feel overwhelmed, stuck or find themselves struggling to understand why they feel or behave in certain ways.
I believe that therapy should feel like a collaborative process. Rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach, I work with you to understand your individual experiences, what may be contributing to your difficulties and what you would like to be different. Together, we develop an understanding of your difficulties and identify practical and meaningful ways of moving forward.
My approach draws on a range of evidence-based psychological models, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) and other therapeutic approaches. I integrate these approaches according to your individual needs, rather than expecting you to fit into a particular model.
I place a strong emphasis on creating a warm, compassionate and non-judgemental space where you can feel comfortable being open about your experiences. I know that reaching out for psychological support can feel daunting, and you don't need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. My role is to help you make sense of what you're experiencing, develop a deeper understanding of yourself and support you in making changes that feel meaningful and sustainable.
Whether you are experiencing a specific mental health difficulty, struggling with something that has happened in your past, or simply feel that life isn't currently where you would like it to be, therapy can provide an opportunity to understand what is happening and work towards feeling differently. Please do reach out to me to have an initial consultation so we can make a collaborative plan to see how I can support you.
