About me

I am a Clinical Psychologist with more than 15 years experience of working with adults, children and families with physical health conditions. I work with people to help them manage the challenges of symptoms, treatment and general management of their conditions and support following treatment. I support people with low mood and anxiety which often accompanies having to manage physical health problems and can exacerbate the condition. My doctoral training included a broad range of therapeutic techniques including cognitive behavioural therapy, motivational interviewing, solution focused therapy and systemic thinking. I have since also had training in acceptance and commitment therapy (act) and compassion focused therapy (cft) which are particularly beneficial when working in physical health.
