About me

I am a HCPC-registered Principal Clinical Psychologist and Internal Family Systems (IFS) Practitioner (Level 3). I have dedicated my career to helping adults with their mental health and wellbeing, initially in NHS Adult Mental Health and Specialist Perinatal Mental Health Services, and more recently as an Associate Therapist with the Adult Specialist Trauma Service at Beacon House.
My independent psychology practice is founded on my deep belief in the transformative potential of an active and connected therapeutic relationship, combined with the healing offered by IFS therapy.
I believe the power of IFS comes from two central ideas: we are all born with an internal system of parts, and we all have a core Self. Combined, these ideas mean that we already have everything inside us we need to heal and grow. Therapy works to restore internal balance and harmony through releasing the burdens held by parts, and fostering stronger connections between parts and with core Self.
I specialise in using IFS to support people on their parental journey � the path that begins when you first contemplate becoming a parent, and continues through conception, pregnancy, birth, and beyond. The transition to parenthood often reactivates early relational experiences and unresolved difficulties that can impact the parent-child relationship. I am also trained and experienced in parent-infant psychotherapy, and I work to strengthen this vital relationship with compassion, care, and clarity.
