I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist, professionally registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). I have worked with individuals across the lifespan in a range of NHS and private sector settings. My consulting room is in Walthamstow, 5 minutes from the station. For further information please follow the link to my website.
I draw flexibly on a range of evidence-based therapies in my practice, including Cognitive-Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, Compassion-Focussed Therapy (CFT), Mentalisation-Based Therapy (MBT) and Mindfulness.
I also offer clinical supervision to mental healthcare professionals.
I am particularly interested in finding a shared way of talking about distress with people who come for therapy, so that they hopefully feel understood, and, in turn, gain insight into their situation, leading to relief and a greater sense of meaning in their daily lives and relationships.
