I am a Clinical Psychologist specialising in work with children, their parent, young adults and couples. I have particular clinical interest in neurodiversity, health conditions (e.g. Tourette’s and diabetes) and relationships. I am also interested in working with young adults to support their mental wellbeing, relationships and career/ life goals. In particular, in managing challenges related to neurodiversity and anxiety, or unpicking early childhood experiences. I offer sessions via video and in clinic in Warrington.
My main therapeutic leanings are Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, alongside family, narrative and systemic approaches. When working with young people, I take into account the context of the family system. All of my work is integrative (using multiple models) based on the client's needs. I try to provide a fun, informal setting for clients of all ages.
My first step is always assessment and formulation, with an aim of having a better understanding of the issues at hand (beyond diagnosis) and providing recommendations for moving forward. I aim to create a relaxed and safe environment for adults and children to explore themselves and their situations, where everyone feels heard, understood and accepted.

While my main specialisms are child and family centred, I am also interested in working with young adults looking for support with the areas outlined here. I am also interested in working with couples (with or without children) in navigating relationship difficulties, particularly where neurodiversity is a factor. I have been working with children with neurodiversity for 15 years.
