You may be feeling overwhelmed, caught in patterns that are hard to change, or struggling to cope with everyday life, and wanting a space where you can feel truly heard and understood. As a psychological therapist working in both the NHS and private practice, I support children (7+), adolescents, and adults with anxiety disorders, depression, and other emotional difficulties. I help young people to understand their feelings, build confidence and develop strategies to manage difficult emotions. I also offer support to parents who may feel worried or unsure how best to help their child.
I combine my specialism in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) with a compassionate, humanistic approach, helping you understand patterns in your thoughts, feelings and behaviour, and develop helpful ways to cope. I also draw on DBT, CFT, ACT, and mindfulness to support meaningful, lasting change.
I understand that reaching out for support can feel like a big step. I offer a safe, compassionate, and confidential space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment. Together, we can begin to make sense of what you’re going through and find ways forward that feel right for you.
