About me

I am a HCPC registered Clinical Psychologist and I am also fully accredited by the British Association of Behavioural and Cognitive Therapists (BABCP). I have over 15 years of clinical experience working within the NHS and other settings. During this time, I have had the privilege of supporting adults and families from a wide range of backgrounds and life stages through the navigation of a range of emotional and psychological challenges.

My training as a Clinical Psychologist is diverse and my practice is firmly grounded in current evidence-based theory, research, and best-practice guidance. Creating a safe, trusting, and supportive therapeutic space is at the heart of my approach. With a thoughtful and individualised approach, we can collaboratively work to develop a bespoke formulation and treatment plan that encompasses your unique needs and goals.

My role is to meet you where you're at, to help you to make sense of your experiences and support you in moving forward towards your personal goals. To do this I work using a range of therapeutic approaches which I tailor to each individual's needs, goals, and circumstances.
I place great importance on offering a nuanced approach, supporting you in making sense of patterns and experiences that may be contributing to current difficulties. A collaborative approach enables us to explore and reflect on your experiences, with compassion and understanding, and to move towards meaningful and achievable goals at your own pace.

Areas of interest

I can provide specialist assessment and psychological intervention focusing on a broad range of emotional and psychological difficulties including: anxiety; depression; PTSD; low self-esteem; OCD; perinatal-related difficulties; psychosis; emotional dysregulation; anger; stress; loss and bereavement; relationship difficulties; sleep problems; phobias; panic attacks; and adjustment to long-term health conditions; among others.

I am trained in using a range of therapeutic approaches and I tailor therapy to each individual's needs, goals, and circumstances. The approaches I most commonly draw on include Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), trauma-focused CBT, Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Narrative Therapy and Systemic Therapy.
