My private practice focuses on anxiety disorders, including panic, generalised anxiety and social anxiety, and OCD, including predominantly obsessional presentations often called 'Pure O'.
OCD can involve distressing intrusive thoughts, rumination, mental checking, reassurance-seeking and repeated attempts to achieve certainty. Together, we make sense of these patterns and use practical CBT strategies to change how you respond, including when the fear feels convincing despite knowing it may be exaggerated.

Over the years, I have found that a lot of my clients have not always had the best experience with practitioners, and this can cause significant anxiety when deciding to access therapy again. Whether you are coming to therapy for the first time, or you have had therapy before, I respect the care and time that is needed to find the right person for you. It is important for you to feel safe and valued for you to explore what is happening in your life. Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you want to learn a little more about me and my approach.

While CBT forms the foundation of my work, I balance practical strategies with space for reflection, self understanding and personal growth.

I am passionate about helping people struggling with all forms of anxiety, including OCD, PTSD, social anxiety, phobias, panic attacks.
You may be successful but your worries and tendency to go over worst case scenarios in your head are so hard to control. Perhaps your anxiety is making it difficult for you to sleep well, relax, causing problems in your relationships, or bringing on panic attacks.

I'm here to help and let you know that you can learn to live life in the moment and learn to trust in your coping skills again.

I-CBT is an evidence-based treatment for OCD - it aims to dismantle the mechanism that drives and maintains OCD.
I-CBT focuses on the faulty reasoning that led to the doubts in the first place. We look at how the doubt is formed; we take a deep look at OCD's mechanism and how it works, and help you to restore trust and confidence in yourself and your senses. By targeting the beginning of the doubt, the obsessing, anxiety, distress and compulsions start to fall away.

How long does OCD treatment take?
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is often treated on a weekly or twice-weekly schedule, depending on symptom severity and the client’s preferences. Some clients may start to see a noticeable improvement in symptoms in as little as six weeks, but it’s also possible, especially in more severe cases, for treatment to take several months to a year before significant progress is made.
What happens if OCD is not treated?
Some people with OCD, especially those with mild symptoms, may find that they are able to adapt reasonably well to life with the condition, even if their symptoms never resolve completely. However, many people, particularly those whose symptoms are severe at the outset, find that their obsessions and compulsions grow more intrusive with time, making it harder to maintain relationships, hold down a job, or navigate the world successfully.
Are there medications for OCD?
Medication can be used to treat OCD. The class of drugs most often prescribed are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, which include fluvoxamine, fluoxetine, and sertraline, among others. In cases of treatment-resistant OCD, other classes of medication, such as tricyclic antidepressants or atypical antipsychotics, may be prescribed. Medication is frequently used in conjunction with therapy.
Can OCD come back after treatment?
Yes. Major life transitions, periods of stress, or other factors can cause symptoms to return or, if they were never fully eradicated, to ramp back up in intensity. For some, these relapses are brief and do not require additional treatment; identifying specific triggers and practicing the skills learned in therapy can help speed their course. For others, returning to therapy for a brief period can help address the underlying stress and strengthen coping mechanisms.
