Thank you for visiting my profile. I am a Registered Chartered Psychologist with over 22 years’ experience of working therapeutically with adults, young people and children in the NHS and private settings. I am very passionate about helping people to make sense of difficult emotions, thoughts and life experiences. Life can be full of pain and suffering, and we all sometimes need a little extra help to get through challenging times. Together we will find ways to help you live a more fulfilling and meaningful life; improve your relationship with yourself; and build on your existing strengths. Please get in touch to find out more.
In addition to working as a Senior Psychologist, I’m also employed as a senior CBT Tutor and CBT supervisor on a postgraduate CBT training programme. I’ve been a CBT tutor for 12 years and my role involves the development and delivery of postgraduate training in CBT and the provision of clinical supervision.
I have a kind and compassionate approach to offering therapeutic support. At the core of my therapeutic work is cultivating a therapeutic relationship that feels safe, containing & non-judgemental. I take great care to work towards developing a shared understanding of your goals, strengths, difficulties, and unique circumstances.

For anxiety difficulties such as OCD & Social Anxiety, I would normally offer around 8-15 sessions with Cognitive Behaviour Therapy. For trauma and PTSD we would use EMDR or trauma-focused CBT. For depression, or struggles with shame or self-criticism, we would use Behavioral activation, ACT, CBT or Compassion Focused Therapy.

I often use CBT; Compassion Focused Therapy and EMDR, but we will develop a tailored therapy plan that is focused on your needs, hopes and goals. At the heart of my practice is developing a safe therapeutic relationship based on trust and respect. I believe a fundamental component that contributes to change is the therapeutic relationship.
