My website
Hi, I'm a HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist, offering therapy to adults online across the UK and in St Helens, Merseyside. Many of the people I work with feel overwhelmed, emotionally stuck, or exhausted from holding everything together. Some are living with anxiety, trauma, or self-criticism. Others are navigating the emotional impact of physical health conditions, chronic symptoms, or pain. My approach is calm, compassionate, and collaborative. I aim to create a space where you feel safe to talk openly, without pressure or judgement, and where change feels possible rather than overwhelming.
You don’t need to have a clear label or diagnosis to start therapy. I work with adults experiencing: Anxiety, and emotional overwhelm. Trauma and distressing life experiences. Low self-esteem, shame, or self-criticism. Burnout. Difficult life transitions or loss. Physical health conditions. Feeling disconnected from yourself or stuck in repeating patterns.
I use evidence-based psychological therapies, with a strong emphasis on Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) and trauma-informed care. This means we work not only with thoughts, but also with emotions and the body, helping you understand why certain patterns developed and how to respond to yourself with greater kindness. We work collaboratively, at your pace.
