I am a BABCP-accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (CBT), qualified Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) Practitioner, and EMDR-trained therapist with experience supporting adults aged 16 and over. I work with individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, complex PTSD, OCD, low self-esteem, confidence difficulties, emotional regulation challenges, and relationship issues. I understand that no two people are the same. Our experiences, relationships, and life circumstances shape how we view ourselves and the world around us. As a result, I tailor therapy to each individual’s unique needs, drawing on evidence-based approaches.
As a BABCP-accredited CBT therapist, qualified CAT practitioner, and EMDR-trained therapist, I help adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, OCD, low self-esteem, and relationship difficulties. Together, we identify unhelpful patterns, build effective coping strategies, and work towards meaningful, lasting change
Seeking therapy can feel like a significant step, and finding the right therapist is an important part of the process. I aim to provide a safe, confidential, and collaborative environment where we can develop a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust, openness, and respect. My goal is to help you move towards a greater sense of wellbeing, resilience.

I can help with anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, and relational difficulties. A typical treatment plan involves collaborative assessment, formulation, and evidence-based therapy (CBT, CAT, EMDR), with regular review and goal setting. You can expect improved emotional regulation, reduced symptoms, clearer patterns, and greater coping, confidence and wellbeing.

I combine Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) in my practice. In our first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and decide on the best approach. CBT will help you challenge negative thoughts to improve your emotions, while CAT will explore how past experiences shape current patterns, helping you create healthier ways of thinking and relating.
