My website
Experienced feminist sexual well-being Clinical Psychologist offering online & face-to-face therapy for people seeking a safe, inclusive, reflective and informed space to work through challenges and move toward greater self-understanding, clarity, calm and confidence. Proud to work with people who are LGBTQIA+ and cisgender heterosexual. Since qualifying in 2012, I've tailored evidence-based psychological therapies with people experiencing multiple difficulties — including low self-esteem, self-criticism, shame, stigma, anxiety, low mood, sexual difficulties, HIV, HSV, unwanted sexual experiences and oppressive experiences.
I'm particularly experienced in enabling people to navigate the intersection between physical health, systemic challenges, identity and emotional wellbeing.  I tailor the psychological models and methods I use to each person or couple I work with, guided by their goals, values, strengths, challenges, relationships, cultural contexts and personal histories.
My therapeutic approach is holistic, warm, and collaborative. I aim to honour how your mind, body, and social world all interact to shape your wellbeing. My goal is to create a space that is compassionate, respectful and effective, where you can explore what truly matters to you and move toward a more fulfilling, intentional, calmer and alive life.

One area in which I often work is with people in their 30s, 40s, and 50s who are facing overwhelm, multiple life demands, self-criticism, shame and a sense of depletion or a loss of 'who am I'— those wanting to connect with their sense of self, develop a life that feels worth having, rebuild confidence and navigate challenging stressful times with wisdom.
