I’m an HCPC-registered Psychologist with a passion for supporting young adults as they navigate life’s challenges and transitions. Over the years, I’ve worked across education, health, social care, and charity sectors with people from all walks of life. Alongside my private practice, I also work as a Principal Psychologist within an NHS Mental Health Service. I believe the experiences we carry and the social worlds we grow up in shape how we see ourselves and connect with others. These influences often feel hidden—yet they can profoundly impact our identity, relationships, and emotional wellbeing.
I offer both individual and group psychotherapy. My preferred therapeutic approach is psychodynamic, but I have the training, skills and experience to draw upon a range of psychological models to best meet your needs. At present, I am at full capacity with 1:1 therapy but would encourage you to consider group therapy.
Group therapy is proven to be as effective as individual therapy and in some areas even more so - for example, if you are feeling isolated, have relationship difficulties and/or would like to learn from others and their experiences.

Therapy starts with an initial phase of exploring your needs and considering what brings you to therapy. Together we will then agree a plan of support. Individual therapy sessions are 50 minutes and we will usually meet once per week. Group therapy sessions are 90 minutes and the group meets once per week.
