Monica Dinis

Professional Profile

My name is Monica and I am a fully qualified and BABCP accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist working with Think CBT from my consulting rooms in London.

I currently work as a Senior CBT therapist within the NHS. I have worked in both Children's and Adult Mental Health during my first two training years as a therapist. I have now been working with adults for the last six years within the NHS, although I do have a profound interest in working with young adults.

Throughout my clinical career, I have had experience of working with presentations such as depression and anxiety disorders; this includes generalised anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, health anxiety, social phobia, panic disorder, specific phobias and agoraphobia. I am also able to work with body dysmorphic disorder, habit disorders, PTSD, Childhood and Adult Trauma and low self-esteem.
​
Therapy is a personal journey through self-awareness and self-discovery. I believe in empowering and encouraging my clients to connect with their values in order to facilitate change. The fundamental qualities in my therapeutic sessions are trust, warmth and empathy, which is channelled through a series of CBT and compassion-focused techniques. My objective is to create a safe and compassionate space in order for you to express yourself and reach your goals and expectations.

As a BABCP accredited CBT specialist, I am governed by the standards of practice and ethical framework laid down by the British Association of Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapy.
