About me

I am registered as a Practitioner Psychologist with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) as well as a chartered member and associate fellow of the British Psychological Society (BPS). I also am an EMDR Europe Accredited Practitioner.

As a Counselling Psychologist, I place a strong emphasis on relational and reflective processes. As my practice is underpinned by a humanistic framework, I place a significant value on creating a safe, secure, empathetic, compassionate, and respectful therapeutic relationship in which you can examine your difficulties. My focus is on empowering you to not only see a way forward in your life, but to thrive rather than simply existing in the world around you.

The therapeutic process will always be open, honest, and transparent. You will be met with unconditional regard, empathy, compassion, and respect as we collaboratively work towards your goals. My approach is holistic in nature where I incorporate all components of your wellbeing by incorporating your physical, emotional, and relational worlds while accounting for how these aspects may be creating barriers to you achieving your therapeutic goals.

I have worked within a wide variety of organisations including the NHS, third sector, and forensic settings. I have worked with both adults and children, and currently provide therapy for personal concerns and medico-legal cases.

Areas of interest

I treat a wider variety of concerns including, but not limited to:

PTSD/CPTSD
Trauma and Resilience
Anxiety and Low mood
Chronic illness, Cancer, and Pain management
Bereavement and Life transitions
Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD), and Phobias
