You may look like you're coping on the outside, but inside your mind rarely switches off. Anxiety, panic, health worries, work pressure or burnout may be taking over, leaving you overwhelmed, exhausted or avoiding things you once did without thinking. You may also be navigating ADHD, with racing thoughts, emotional overwhelm, procrastination or low self-esteem. I offer a warm, down-to-earth space where we can understand what is driving these difficulties, identify what may be keeping them going, and find practical ways to help you move forward, feel more in control and start trusting yourself again.

I have helped clients with a range of presenting difficulties such as low mood, anxiety, OCD, health anxiety, relationship struggles and many more. What you must have in therapy is the space to feel comfortable to open up and feel heard by your therapist. When people come to therapy they feel stuck and feel like they don’t know where to turn. If this is you therapy can help provide a space for empathy, and understanding while helping you to move in a better direction. In addition I provide gold standard ADHD assessments, reports and link with relevant professionals for supported treatment plans. Prices for this upon request.

Hi! I’m Amy. I’m a Chartered Clinical Psychologist. I was very lucky to really enjoy going to university to study psychology. I quickly knew it was the area I wanted to work in and so began my journey in training to be one, completing masters and doctorate degrees along the way! I’ve worked with lots of different people, including children and young people, older adults and people with intellectual disabilities, neurodevelopmental and neurological conditions. I have also worked with include both child and adult eating disorders, OCD, psychosis, stroke rehabilitation and people who have offended who are staying in hospital.

My clients have been holding it together for a long time. Functioning, often capable, but carrying something underneath that won't shift. Some are under relentless professional pressure. Others carry trauma from earlier in life, childhood experiences, abuse, or relationships that left a mark. What they share is that getting by isn't enough anymore. They're tired of managing. They're ready to move forward. Many have tried talking therapy. Some found it helpful up to a point. Others felt understood but unchanged. They come to me wanting something that works at a deeper level, without having to relive every detail.

Psychotherapist, MSc, MUKCP
People access therapy for many different reasons, but generally we are most likely to reach out for help when our usual coping strategies are no longer effective. At these times it is not always helpful or possible to turn to family or friends, and their well-meaning support may not always help. I will provide a calm and confidential space where you will be able to safely share what is troubling you.

Have you ever felt that sinking feeling that nothing you do is good enough? You try hard to do everything perfectly, to keep everyone around you happy? To never say no. At first, it works! No one is mad at you! You might even achieve your goals and receive praise. It feels great! But over time it becomes an exhausting treadmill that you can’t get off. And if you make a mistake, or hit burnout? It feels like a disaster. And the nagging fear of failure never leaves. Maybe you’ve grown up neurodivergent, in a world where your way of being doesn’t seem to work. So you’ve masked and overcompensated until you simply can’t anymore.
