About me

I am a Clinical Psychologist and Family Therapist and have worked across Child and Adult Mental Health and Psychological Medicine settings in the NHS for 30 years.

I am to provide a supportive and caring context in which to explore current difficulties and to find solutions collaboratively with the client. My overarching model is systemic family therapy and I incorporate cognitive behavioural therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) as needed. I negotiate the frequency of sessions, as required, sometimes weekly, but usually fortnightly, also brief therapy with sessions spaced further apart, eg monthly.
