About me

I have over 20 years experience as a psychologist, working in a range of settings including the NHS.

I work very much with the individual and tailor therapy to their needs. My main focus is to help people get to where they want to get to through therapy. I draw on a range of therapies such as cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT), Existential Therapy and EMDR in order to help people achieve their aims.

I specialise in the following areas:

- Depression
- Anxiety
- Phobias
- Stress
- Trauma � PTSD
- Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
- Work/Life Balance
- Bereavement
- Existential issues
- Lack of direction and focus
- Low self esteem
- High Functioning Autism

I also have a special interest in working with people experiencing stress in the workplace.

In my psychology career, I have worked in Italy and Belgium, and in Australia where I coached senior executives in the New South Wales Public Service Commission.

Prior to becoming a psychologist, I had a highly successful career in software development, was a consultant with Microsoft and worked in banking in the City and Canary Wharf.

I offer face to face and remote consultations.
