About me

I am a Consultant Clinical Psychologist, accredited Cognitive Behaviour Therapist and registered Mindfulness teacher. I have worked in adult mental health services in the NHS for over 25 years, with people experiencing both recent and more longstanding or recurrent mental health difficulties.

I draw on a range of models and effective, evidence-based approaches, tailored to meet your unique needs. These include, but are not limited to, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-based interventions, Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). We work together, combining your experience and insights with psychological models, to restore your wellbeing and achieve your goals.

It can be hard to know which approach might suit you best and who you might feel most comfortable with. I therefore offer a free 30- minute telephone consultation so that we can discuss your needs and what I can offer. Further information is available on my website.

I offer in-person appointments in Hexham, Northumberland, which is accessible from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Northumberland and parts of Cumbria. I also offer online appointments.

Areas of interest

Depression; anxiety; trauma; women's health; physical health difficulties.
