I offer warm, compassionate and evidence-based psychological therapy within a safe, non-judgemental space where you can feel heard and understood. My approach is collaborative and tailored to you, focusing on what matters most in your life and helping you move towards meaningful, lasting change. Together, we will explore the difficulties you are experiencing and develop practical skills to support greater psychological flexibility, emotional clarity, and confidence in navigating life’s challenges. Therapy is not about “fixing” you, but about helping you better understand yourself and build on your strengths.
As an HCPC-registered Psychologist, I draw on a range of evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), EMDR, Schema Therapy, Mindfulness-based approaches, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT). This allows therapy to be flexibly adapted to your individual needs rather than a one-size-fits-all.
I work with a wide range of difficulties and provide a supportive space to explore what is going on for you. I aim to help you develop effective coping strategies while addressing the deeper patterns that may be keeping you stuck. I am passionate about helping people reconnect with themselves and nd create a life that feels more manageable and meaningful.
