About me

I am a chartered psychologist registered with the HCPC, holding an MSc in Counselling Psychology and a Doctorate in Counselling Psychology. With over 16 years of experience in mental health settings, I have been dedicated to making a positive impact on the well-being of individuals.

In addition to my private practice, I have consistently worked within the NHS and third-sector organizations. My extensive experience includes working with adults in health psychology settings, primary care, and with individuals facing long-term interpersonal challenges.

My doctoral-level training has equipped me with a diverse skill set, encompassing approaches such as CBT, Psychodynamic Interpersonal Therapy, and Humanistic approaches. I have also continued my professional postdoctoral development, specializing in Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) and EMDR.

I am deeply passionate about my work and am committed to providing a safe and supportive environment for my clients. This safe space allows them to explore their current struggles, develop effective coping strategies, and strengthen their connections with both themselves and others.

In my private practice, I offer short-term and long-term therapy to adults. My goal is to assist clients in gaining a better understanding of themselves and their relationships, as well as equipping them with the tools to cope more effectively.
