About me
I'm a Senior Clinical Psychologist, and over the past 15 years working in the NHS I've become increasingly interested in how our nervous system adapts to stress, adversity and the day-to-day challenges we face. Our early experiences shape the beliefs we hold about ourselves, others, and the world � and shapes the way our mind and body learn to respond. Sometimes we may find ourselves stuck in survival states or in patterns that may no longer serve us well.
Together, we can explore the mind body template you've developed and gently consider what might need updating so you can feel more grounded, flexible, and emotionally resilient.
My clinical background spans several NHS settings, including services for people recovering from traumatic events and those who feel stuck in survival states with symptoms of anxiety, depression, post traumatic stress, chronic stress and burnout. I've worked in prisons, supported individuals affected by the London and Tunisia terror attacks, and I currently work in an NHS service dedicated to Military Veterans.
I draw on several therapeutic approaches which can complement one another depending on your needs. Eye Movement, Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) helps the nervous system process past experiences that may still be shaping how you feel or respond today, allowing for a more updated and grounded sense of yourself and the world.
Compassion Focused Therapy brings awareness to the mind's inner critic � and the tendency to criticise ourselves, especially when things feel difficult. Together, we can use the approach to develop a kinder, coaching based inner voice.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy offers a practical way of understanding the relationship between our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, and how we can use that understanding to create meaningful change.
Please do get in touch to discuss working together. I offer appointments on Monday and Tuesdays between 9 and 3pm face to face in Hove or online.
