Choosing a therapist can be a stressful process, and it's difficult to decide which kind of therapy to try. Many people find it helpful to work with a therapist who has trained in more than one therapy, who can switch to a different therapy when needed, and who can tailor sessions according to your needs. My 16 years experience in supporting neurodivergent clients (with ADHD, autism, dyslexia, dyspraxia or other difficulties) led me to further training in 2021 in autism, and specialised CBT and ACT for ADHD and emotional regulation problems.
I qualified in 2008, after a 12 month NHS placement and MSc in Psychological Therapy, accredited by the British Psychological Society. I'm experienced in delivering Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy), mindfulness, and person-centred counselling. I'm also trained in Gottman relationship therapy.
I’m experienced in adapting therapy for autistic clients and AuDHDers. I also work with clients who have addictions, social phobia, depression, anxiety, panic, low self esteem, OCD, trauma, PTSD, Functional Neurological Disorders, chronic pain and chronic fatigue. I’m a qualified supervisor, and an experienced mentor and trainer.
