Tom became interested in TEAM-CBT after undertaking personal work with Peter Spurrier and immediately recognised the impact these powerful techniques could have on a wider population.

Working as a GP in Brighton, Tom incorporates TEAM techniques into his consultations, particularly the 5 secrets of effective communication to develop a deep rapport and ensure his patients feel heard which can often accelerate therapeutic change. He has also found great benefits using these skills in his personal life.

His goal is to become a level 4 trainer and organise educational sessions for people in his General Practice catchment area and then further afield to develop their own skills and teach others.

He would love to be able to refer people to therapists trained in TEAM and also to connect with anyone with an interest in this field.
