About me

My work focuses on the psychological impact of physical injury, chronic pain, long-term health conditions and medical trauma. I support adults adjusting to changes in their body, identity, independence, relationships or sexual wellbeing following injury or illness. I also have a particular interest in sexual and psychosexual difficulties, including concerns around intimacy, desire and sexual functioning. Difficulties such as low mood, anxiety, trauma and loss are common in these contexts, and I aim to help individuals move towards a meaningful and fulfilling life alongside ongoing health challenges.

I offer a compassionate, collaborative approach, working at your pace to help you feel safe, understood and supported. Therapy is tailored to your needs, creating space to explore difficult experiences, build understanding and work towards meaningful change. I draw on a range of approaches such as CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Compassion-Focused Therapy and EMDR as appropriate.

Deciding to seek psychological support can feel like a daunting step, particularly when navigating health-related or personal challenges. I offer an initial phone call to answer any questions and help you decide whether working together feels right for you. Please note, I currently offer online sessions on Mondays.
