About me

As a Clinical Psychologist with over 14 years of experience in the NHS, I have varied experience working in mental health settings, and have regular supervision which enables me to reflect on and develop my work. I provide both brief and longer term psychological therapy, and work with whatever difficulty you bring and would like support with. I am experienced in using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR), Mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and compassionate mind therapy.

I enjoy working with people and am continually amazed by the resilience of human beings to overcome adversity and make changes. The decision to reach out for support can feel difficult, and I believe remarkable change can happen if the relationship with the therapist feels safe and trusting. My aim is to allow you to feel that you can use the time we spend working together to achieve your goals.

Areas of interest

I have experience of working with a wide range of difficulties, and I offer a bespoke, individually tailored treatment plan. I have experience working with depression and low mood, relationship difficulties, anxiety, trauma and PTSD, OCD, eating related difficulties, chronic pain, long-term health conditions, and low self-esteem. Some individuals also seek support for emotional difficulties arising from past/traumatic experiences, life transitions, being a victim of crime or abuse, difficulties at work, difficulties arising from health problems or being involved in an accident or crime.
