Annika Sykes
Clinical psychologist
About
Hi, I'm Annika.
As a clinical psychologist, I'm here to support you through life's challenges with empathy, insight and practical strategies. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or the lingering effects of trauma, I pride myself on providing the safety and space for you to explore and adjust to challenges in your life, one step at a time, at a pace that feels right for you, from a place of compassion.
I work with adults navigating big transitions, whether in work, relationships or parenthood, and I have a special interest in helping people to understanding their challenges in the context of their early life experiences and family of origin relationships. My approach is warm, validating, collaborative, and down-to-earth. Together we will explore what is holding you back, work through unhelpful patterns, and build strategies to help you feel more balanced, resilient, and in control.
I’m trained in attachment-based therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, schema therapy, motivational interviewing, and mindfulness-based therapy.
