Hello and welcome to Victory Psychology. I am a consultant clinical psychologist working with Veterans, and adults (16+) experiencing mental health difficulties, covering Bournemouth, surrounding areas, but most I am online. Aswell as having specialist skills in treating combat and civilian PTSD, and complex trauma, I also I treat anxiety disorders, depression, OCD, and peri natal mental health. I also specialise in therapy for those who have sustained brain injury, stroke, life changing injuries and neurological disorders. In addition, I conduct cognitive capacity assessments for legal teams and the court.
Currently I split my time between working in the Ministry of Defence delivering therapy for serving personnel, and running my private practice, Victory Psychology. I provide clinical supervision to CBT therapists and psychologists.
I am primarily working online at present, meaning that you can access therapy from the comfort of your own home, and without the added pressure of travel to and from the appointment. I work Mondays and Fridays, Tues-Thursdays afternoons and evenings, some evenings and weekends, so please get in touch for my availability.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their experiences. During our initial sessions, we will delve into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
