As a fully accredited Senior Cognitive Behavioural and EMDR Psychotherapist, and a qualified Social Worker, I offer a warm, supportive space to guide you on your journey toward healing and personal growth. With extensive experience in both NHS and third-sector settings, I specialise in trauma, anxiety, PTSD, and emotional resilience. I provide therapy tailored to your needs, drawing from a range of evidence-based modalities including CBT, EMDR, Mindfulness-Based CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT).
Therapy with me is a collaborative process. We will work together to understand the root of your struggles, whether they stem from anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship challenges, trauma, or negative thought patterns. My approach integrates the bio-psycho-social model, taking into account the mind, body, and actions that influence your well-being.
I am particularly skilled in helping individuals with PTSD, health anxiety, body dysmorphia, OCD, depression, anxiety & phobias amongst others. With compassion and expertise, I’ll support you in breaking free from these from these cycles and regaining control of your life, cultivating greater emotional balance and resilience.
