Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or weighed down by the challenges life has thrown at you?
Reaching out for support can feel daunting, but you don’t have to face things alone. I’m a HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist with nearly a decade of NHS experience, and I specialise in helping people find new ways to cope, heal, and move towards the life they want.
I work with adults experiencing anxiety, low mood, trauma, or the ongoing impact of stressful life events. I also have particular expertise in supporting people living with long-term health conditions, like Fibromyalgia, CRPS, M.E and cancer-related pain.
For those processing difficult experiences, I also offer specialist EMDR therapy for trauma and PTSD. My approach is warm, collaborative, evidenced-based and practical. Together, we’ll focus on what matters most to you, exploring strategies to help you reduce distress, feel more grounded, and reconnect with hope and meaning.
I keep my caseload intentionally small so I can offer thoughtful, high-quality care.
Sessions are online, available Mondays - Fridays (9.30am-2.30pm), with some evening capacity Monday and Tuesday.
If you’re ready to take the next step, I’d be honoured to work alongside you.
