I am a Clinical Psychologist with over 20 years of experience working with adults across a broad range of psychological difficulties and life challenges. I have a special interest in supporting individuals living with chronic pain, chronic illness, and the effects of trauma. My approach is grounded in the belief that meaningful change often occurs through small, achievable steps that accumulate over time. Rather than focusing solely on symptom reduction, I work collaboratively with clients to build lives that are rich in purpose, connection, and personal meaning.
My therapeutic approach is tailored to the individual and draws on Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Schema Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), DBT, and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR). As an EMDR Accredited Practitioner, I have experience helping clients process traumatic experiences and develop greater resilience.
I strive to create a warm, collaborative, and respectful therapeutic environment where clients feel supported to navigate challenges, develop new perspectives, and move toward the life they want to live.
