About me

I am a HCPC registered Clinical Psychologist with over 15 years experience working in NHS mental health services with people of all ages. I currently work part-time as a Senior Clinical Psychologist in a NHS adult mental health service. In addition to my Clinical Psychology doctorate, I have completed additional training in a variety of evidence- based approaches including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (PGDip).

I have a great deal of experience working with adults to help with anxiety, depression, mood difficulties, low-self esteem, trauma and PTSD, stress, attachment or relationship difficulties. Currently, I predominantly offer remote online appointments.

My approach is flexible and integrative as I believe therapy works best when tailored to your individual experiences, preferences and goals. I draw on a range of evidence-based therapies, such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy (NT) and Systemic approaches. I believe in the value of making sense of our strengths and difficulties in the context of our life experiences and have a special interest in the impact of self-criticism and self-compassion on psychological wellbeing.

I understand the importance of a safe therapeutic relationship and always aim to provide an inclusive, warm, genuine and non-judgemental space to help you explore any difficulties you wish to bring. I feel privileged to work alongside my clients to help bring about meaningful change inline with their personal
goals and values.
