About me

Do you dream of creating a fulfilling, meaningful life? Are you looking to understand, heal, and let go of painful experiences? Do you want to learn to honour your authentic self and step into your own light? Then, you've come to the right place! I'd be honoured to support you.

I am a clinical psychologist with 20 years of experience. I work with cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and other 3rd wave approaches (CFT, FAP). I am passionate about helping my clients through their recovery journeys. I have a holistic approach to treatment, taking into consideration emotional, biological, social and cultural factors that impact a person's mental health. Treatment is tailored to meet clients' goals and needs. I see children (from about 7 yrs old) up to any age in adulthood. I offer support to parents and can liaise with schools.

Besides my experience as a Clinical Psychologist, I also have a background in neuropsychology and I offer medico-legal assessments. I have plenty of experience in supporting clients who have been through road traffic accidents, occupational accidents, concussions and other physical injuries.
