About me

I am a warm and compassionate HCPC registered Counselling Psychologist with eighteen years post qualification experience within multidisciplinary healthcare teams within the NHS and private practice.

I have developed particular expertise working with: Trauma, Anxiety and Depression, Psychosis and Mid- Life Burnout.

However, therapy with me goes beyond the labels you may have been given. I ask 'what's happened to you' rather than 'what's wrong with you' and together we create a therapy plan that fits your unique experiences and priorities.

For many people recovery means taking time to understand the why behind the symptoms you are experiencing so you can address the root of the problem and work towards goals that matter and bring joy.

My work is trauma informed and deeply relational within an integrative framework that includes Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness Based Therapies and Psychodynamic thinking which can help you in making sense of your experiences, regulate your emotions and improve relationships with yourself and others.

I have specialised post-graduate training in CBT and CFT for Psychosis and clinical experience in the NHS working in Early Intervention in Psychosis teams as a Lead Psychologist.

I am currently training in EMDR which is a structured therapy for processing trauma and anxiety related difficulties.
