About me

Hi. I have over 20 years experience working with children and young people who have experienced early life trauma's and difficulties. This work has included working within residential drug rehabilitation units, prisons and criminal justice services, sexual abuse and domestic violence, with homeless populations and in children's residential homes.

Since qualifying as a Clinical Psychologist in 2018, I have continued to hone my specialist interest in attachment theory, post-trauma work, family work and providing support to children's homes via training, consultation and supervision.

I am a reflective practitioner and work in an integrative way, incorporating approaches which I feel will be clinically beneficial for you/your family. The therapeutic models and approaches I draw on in my clinical practice include Dyadic Developmental Psychotherapy and Practice (DDP), Systemic, Narrative, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Compassion Focused and Psychodynamic ideas. I also believe in the mind-body connection for healing, growth and development, and so am drawn to embodied approaches and somatic-based therapeutic work.
