Nick Arnott-Steel
Clinical Psychologist
ABOUT ME
I’m a Senior Clinical Psychologist with over nine years of experience working in New Zealand and the United Kingdom. I specialise in helping people manage and overcome anxiety, trauma, and OCD-related challenges using evidence-based approaches.
My main areas of expertise are Eye-Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). I’ve used EMDR for nearly a decade to support clients in processing trauma, anxiety, and distressing life experiences. I also have advanced training in ERP, the gold-standard treatment for OCD and related anxiety conditions.
In addition to EMDR and ERP, I incorporate Prolonged Exposure (PE), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), depending on what suits each person best.
All sessions are offered online. Contact today and see if working together is the right fit for you.
