About me

Before I left the NHS in 2019, I spent 12 years working in mental health services, the last 6 years as a Senior Psychotherapist and Clinical Supervisor. I hold a First Class Honours degree as well as Post-Graduate Diplomas in Mental Health Studies and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy.

CBT has been proven to be effective for treating many common mental health issues, and offers a collaborative, flexible and pragmatic approach. As well as working within a traditional CBT model, I also use other methods, such as imagery, and sometimes narrative work. As therapist and client we join forces, sharing our expertise and skills to explore, learn, and work things through, to help you feel happier and more in control of your life.

I have experience in treating a wide range of emotional and psychological problems, including: Low mood or Depression; Low Self Esteem; Phobias, Panic Disorder; Generalised Anxiety Disorder; Obsessive Compulsive Disorder; Psychogenic (non-epileptic) Seizures; Health Anxiety; Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, and Complex Trauma.
