About me

I am a CBT Therapist in private practice who works with adults and adolescents (aged 16+) and specialise in treating Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and Body Disorder, and routinely treating conditions such as, Depression, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Generalised Anxiety, Panic Attacks, Social Anxiety Disorder, Health Anxiety, phobias and behavioural addictions.

I have also completed specialist training in treating conditions, such as: Chronic Fatigue, Chronic Pain and Medically
Unexplained Symptoms, as well the interplay between mental health and physical health, for physical health conditions,
including diabetes, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and Coronary Heart Disease.

I have trained using a range of approaches including cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), acceptance-commitment therapy (ACT), compassion focused therapy (CFT), person-centred and integrative therapies.

I offer a compassionate and non-judgmental approach to therapy, which tailors the treatment to the needs of the client.

In addition to my clinical work, I deliver mental health workshops at schools, charities and NHS services. I have also published academic papers on my area of interest, cultural adaptations of therapy for cultural minority groups. I am passionate about the delivery of culturally sensitive therapy and have delivered workshops to professionals and written articles on this subject matter.
