As a Clinical Psychologist with over 15 years of experience working in a variety of settings, I am passionate about supporting neurodiversity across the lifespan, with a particular interest in providing high-quality clinical assessments that bring clarity and understanding. Whether working with children, adolescents or adults, I aim to create a safe, respectful space where differences are recognised and celebrated rather than pathologised. I believe that a thoughtful assessment can be a powerful turning point, helping individuals and families better understand strengths, challenges and the pathways forward.

I work with adults & couples dealing with anxiety, depression, PTSD & complex trauma, relationship difficulties, OCD and other emotional concerns. I approach therapy with a deep curiosity about you: how you see things like noone else. Depending on what brings you to therapy, we may explore how pivotal moments in life have shaped you, your beliefs, and your relationships, or we may look at practical ways you could bring about the changes you hope for. My aim is to provide a supportive space that helps you understand things more clearly, accept yourself more fully, and feel more capable of meeting life’s challenges.

Many of my clients feel overwhelmed by past experiences, stuck in patterns they can’t shift, or unsure how to heal old emotional wounds.

Finding the right therapist can feel overwhelming, but at the heart of therapy is connection - and that’s what I try my best to prioritise in our sessions. I believe therapy shouldn’t feel clinical or detached; it should feel like a conversation with someone who truly sees you. I work specifically with young adults aged 18 - 35, and I have a special interest in working with trauma, attachment difficulties, anxiety disorders, young adults who are experiencing family and relationship difficulties, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and people who are experiencing identity struggles or those just feeling "stuck".

You may be seeking support through individual therapy or by joining a small supportive group where you can feel safe, understood, and accepted. For some, this includes healing from trauma related to sexual violence, incest, or other forms of sexual, physical, or psychological abuse, which may still shape how safe the world and relationships feel. You may also be neurodivergent—living with ADHD, autism, OCD, or dyslexia—or navigating anxiety, depression, or bipolar disorder and feeling misunderstood or exhausted from trying to meet expectations that do not align with who you truly are and needing a safe and confidential place.

My approach is compassionate, practical, and honest. I aim to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and able to make meaningful changes without judgment.

I work with late adolescents and adults who seek stable felt safety. Whether burnout, sensory overwhelm, or relational exhaustion, you are welcome here. I provide support at every stage of the journey.
Instead of asking "Why am I defensive?" we explore "Where is my capacity breaking down, & what will help me function again?" I help to explore traits, untangle past misdiagnoses, & make sense of your nervous system. I champion those who know they have a spiky developmental profile yet who are ready to move past survival mode, build agency, and create a life aligned with capacity & invite more joy.

Let’s be honest. Walking into therapy can feel intimidating. The old-school image of psychology is still very “serious face, intimidating suit, big words you didn’t ask for.”
That’s not what happens here.
I’m a psychologist who genuinely believes therapy shouldn’t feel like you’re being analysed under fluorescent lighting. It should feel collaborative, clear & human. You deserve support that makes sense in real life. No "hacks".
My approach is simple. I get to know you properly. We figure out what’s getting in your way. And we build tools that actually work in your day-to-day life. No unnecessary jargon.
