My name is Jess and I’m a Clinical Psychologist. If you're feeling anxious, depressed, or overwhelmed about studies, work, new changes, or simply about everyday life, please reach out. I have a special interest in treating anxiety disorders (e.g. social anxiety, generalised anxiety, panic disorder), depression, eating disorders (binge eating, bulimia, body image concerns), as well as supporting new parents through pregnancy and post-partum. I enjoy helping my clients reach their goals and working towards improving their overall health and wellbeing, in a safe, empathic, and validating way.
Having practiced as a psychologist for 10 years, I’ve learnt the importance of really listening and helping clients to better understand themselves. I tailor treatment based on everyone's unique needs and feedback, but also incorporate practical strategies from evidence-based therapies such as CBT, ACT, Interpersonal Therapy and Schema Therapy.
I know that seeking therapy, especially for the first time, can be daunting and you might feel unsure where to start. I consider myself to be warm, friendly, and approachable and I always aim to make your therapeutic experience, a positive one. If you want to chat further to see if I'd be a good fit for you, please email me or visit my website!
