About me

I'm passionate about helping people develop into the most authentic, and chosen, version of themselves.

Are you, at times, overwhelmed with feelings of shame, anxiety or sadness? Do you find, despite all your best efforts, you get stuck in the same patterns of relationships (with yourself, or others)? Are you trying to avoid difficult memories, and is this limiting your quality of life? I get the exhaustion.

You are not alone.

I have 15+ years of experience working in the NHS with adults with complex psychological and mental health difficulties. I am trained to doctoral level in a variety of therapeutic approaches (including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy � CBT) and have additional training in Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR).

I have also worked in, and trained in, a Perinatal Mental Health Team with mummies, bumps and babies. I am currently working in the NHS as Lead for Psychology in a Specialist Mental Health Service for adults and have a small private practice.

In a nutshell, this means, together, we can work out what's going on for you and use a variety of approaches to get you heading in the direction you want to be going in!

I abide by the professional and ethical standards laid down by ACAT; BPS and HCPC and have full professional indemnity insurance and current DBS clearance.
