Therapy brings clarity, helping you make effective decisions and positive changes in thoughts, attitudes, and behaviours. It's not about advice giving but creating space to talk, explore, and reach your own realisations. The goal is to feel more equipped to make choices and move forward with confidence and wellbeing. Hypnotherapy & mindfulness can be introduced as a type of complementary therapy—hypnosis promotes focus and openness to positive change, while mindfulness helps keep you grounded in the present.

Are you finding parts of life difficult and get stuck in repeating patterns? Perhaps you experience things which are hard to explain, like a harsh unforgiving inner critic, or a ‘complicated’ relationship with your vulnerabilities? These struggles don't mean you're broken, they mean you're human. The approach I use is grounded in the idea that the more we try to fight or avoid our unwanted experiences, the more entangled we tend to become. If you are tired of doing the same old thing and getting the same old results, my approach can offer you a kinder and more effective skillset, on how to understand and manage the human condition

I am a registered and Specialist Clinical Psychologist with years experience working with individuals facing a variety of clinical challenges. Life can so easily often bring us to a place of disconnect, whether it be periods of low mood, anxiety, trouble with relationships (or other symptoms) I attempt to guide my clients to develop deeper self-awareness, healthier ways of coping and connection to themselves. I like to place equal focus on current difficulties as well as the getting to the root cause, the unconscious parts of what is really going on. I also place focus on reconnecting the mind with the body, aiding self discovery.

Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Clinical evidence based Mindfulness, aimed at effective treatment of most psychological issues. I am an Expert Witness and do court work (especially trauma).I aim to get desired results quickly (I am not a fan of long term therapy, but do offer long term support, if needed). I believe action oriented client, centered therapy works better than just "active listening, "which clients often find frustrating. Empowering people to help themselves is useful and reduces realiance on a therapist, I aim to make myself redundant and not needed by a client. Remote therapy works really well in my experience.
