Jonny is recognised as a skilled and compassionate clinician working with OCD. He emphasises an Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focused approach to Exposure and Response Prevention Therapy. He integrates Compassion Focused Therapy into this process to help clients develop a more supportive approach to themselves and their recovery.

He has appeared a number of times on ‘the OCD Stories’ podcast and is the resident therapist on the OCD Stories Camp.

Jonny has extensive experience of working with clients who have struggled with OCD recovery.
