I work with adults and adolescents who are struggling. Sometimes people come knowing exactly what they need; others simply feel stuck or overwhelmed. Anxiety, depression, trauma, complex PTSD, OCD, phobias, grief, low self-esteem, or difficulties in relationships are just some of the issues I can help with. I also have specialist experience supporting people with neurodevelopmental difference (autism, ADHD, tics, Tourette's syndrome). If you think you might be neurodivergent, I'm able to offer help. Whatever brings you here, I will listen without judgement and work with you to understand what you need.
I am a Clinical Psychologist with extensive NHS experience as a Consultant Clinical Psychologist for autism and ADHD services. I use a range of evidence-based therapies to help you build a new relationship with difficult thoughts and feelings, and EMDR for trauma and distressing memories. I draw on a range of approaches and tailor everything to you.
I know that asking for help is not easy. But in my experience, people have a remarkable capacity to grow and find their own path — sometimes they just need the right support to get there. I see my role as helping you discover what that looks like for you, and how you can understand yourself better. I offer a free 15 min initial consultation over the phone.

My approach draws on a range of evidence-based therapies, helping to develop a different relationship with our inner world: learning to notice and relate to thoughts, feelings, and physical sensations with greater curiosity and compassion, rather than struggle or avoidance. By building awareness of our internal experience, we create the space needed for meaningful change and a more values-led life
