About me
I am an open, warm and empathetic therapist and have an integrative approach, tailored to your needs and preferences. I understand how difficult it is to come to therapy, there is no one size fits all, and I aim to make the experience as comfortable and effective for your goals as possible.
I have 19 years' experience of working in mental health care. Over the course of my career, I have worked with adults' self-management of chronic conditions, carers, postnatal depression, young adults in student counselling and in an NHS service for a number of years offering counselling, EMDR and low intensity CBT (for psychological assessment, OCD, anxiety, depression, stress management and phobias) both to individuals and to groups. I then went on to specialise in trauma and have worked almost exclusively with emergency services responders who have PTSD in the last three years.
I am also trained in offering counselling and guidance following ADHD diagnosis.
