About me

I am a BABCP (British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapists) accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist with extensive experience delivering evidence based CBT for anxiety, burnout and mood difficulties across NHS and private practice settings. Many of my clients are high functioning professionals who feel overwhelmed beneath the surface, as well as those navigating career breaks or uncertainty about their next step. I provide a confidential, supportive space to support my clients overcoming anxiety, low mood, and rebuild confidence.

I am working in a national specialised service in the NHS. Prior to this role, I was a senior CBT therapist in another NHS service, which involved leading a long term health condition team, offering line management, providing supervision to CBT therapists and CBT trainees, as well as offering CBT to clients. I also presented in the London wide Diabetes UK in 2024. My other experiences included being a committee member of the BABCP Compassion Interest Group (SIG) whom support and encourage research and clinical practice with compassion-focused CBT. I was also invited to international companies to give presentations on CBT in my private work.

My other experiences include:

-I was a senior Occupational Therapist in the mental health services (NHS) for almost 10 years before I became a CBT therapist. My clinical experience included working with both in-patients and out-patients to help them regaining skills and confidence to restart their activities of daily living. My clinical role also included clients facing role, providing supervision to junior occupational therapists and students.
-I have been invited to international companies to give presentations on CBT in my private work.

Other information about me:
-I completed the CBT training at the Royal Holloway University and later completed further CBT training at the Institute of Psychiatry, King's College London. These trainings were steeped in the evidence based CBT models, meaning these models have research evidence to support that they are effective treatments for people who suffer from anxiety and mood difficulties.

-I offer therapy in English and Chinese (Cantonese).

-I receive regular supervision and undertake CPD to maintain my professional registration.
