Stuck in cycles of intrusive/scary taboo OCD thoughts/images and mental compulsions that feel too important to ignore? You’re constantly seeking certainty, reassurance, replaying conversations, rechecking decisions. Maybe you’re too scared to be alone with your thoughts. You’re convinced these thoughts/images mean something awful about who you are. The mental exhaustion is overwhelming - you’re living in your head. What if you don’t need to figure it all out or find the “right” answer? You need to learn that thoughts/images and anxiety can’t actually harm you and discover practical tools to break free from OCD’s grip.
I specialise in treating OCD, anxiety, and taboo thoughts/images using CBT & ERP (inc. rumination focussed ERP). If you’re exhausted from trying to control or figure out every scary thought, I’ll teach you practical tools to break the cycle of mental compulsions. I also bring lived experience of taboo themes of OCD.
I’m a warm, down-to-earth therapist who specialises in treating OCD & anxiety, especially when past therapy hasn’t helped or OCD keeps changing themes. I’m experienced in treating all OCD themes; POCD, ROCD, harm, contamination, scrupulosity, perinatal, sexuality etc. Change is possible, & you don’t have to live life in your head.

I specialise in treating OCD and anxiety using CBT and ERP (including rumination focused ERP for 'Pure O' presentations) If you're feeling stuck in loops of worry, taboo intrusive thoughts and constant 'what ifs', I'll help you gently face the things you fear, feel more in control of your mind, and get back to the life you want - WITHOUT anxiety and OCD calling the shots.

I use CBT and ERP to help you understand what's keeping anxiety or OCD going, and gently support you to respond differently. We'll go at your pace, focus on what matters most to you, and work together to build practical tools so you can feel more present, less stuck, and more in charge of your life.
