I am a registered Clinical Psychologist with over ten years of experience of working in various mental health services. I have experience of using a variety of evidence-based therapies to create bespoke, person-centred sessions for clients. I am passionate about creating conversations which are compassionate, warm, non-judgemental and empowering. I place great importance on building therapeutic relationships which are built on trust and collaboration and support you to reconnect to what is important. I am deeply committed to understanding and embracing your culture, race, gender, sexual orientation, and all forms of diversity.
At Olea Therapy, we specialise in supporting individuals and couples dealing with a range of mental health experiences, like low mood, anxiety, stress, trauma, and relationship difficulties. Our approach is tailored to your needs, drawing on evidence-based therapies like Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and trauma-focused techniques.
You can learn more and book a session directly through our website. We also offer a complimentary consultation to help you find the right therapist and therapy approach for your needs. Whether you're ready to take the first step or just exploring your options, we’re here to support you.
