Are you fed up or despairing to find yourself in the same old cycle of addictive or compulsive behaviour yet again? I help people who are stuck in these patterns to feel hopeful, optimistic and confident about regaining control of their lives. Addictions and compulsive behaviours can begin as our way of coping. Whether that is alcohol, drugs and gambling or shopping, over-eating and pornography ........or any other repetitive behaviour - they seem to ‘steal our lives’ and still leave us with our original problem. Perhaps we don't even know why our compulsive behaviour started - we only know that we need to make a change.

I have over 20 years experience in NHS settings including Adult Mental Health, Substance Misuse and leading the Psychology team of a Weight Management service focussing on emotional eating. As a Counselling Psychologist, I bring expertise on human behaviour and brain neurology alongside empathy, compassion & kindness towards you and all your behaviours.
Using approaches that are both active and soothing, we can work together to address the behaviour and the underlying anxiety, depression or low self-esteem that is driving it. I can also help you to resolve earlier trauma or disruptions to key relationships that may be truly underlying your unwanted behaviours.
