I am a Highly Specialised Clinical Psychologist and have been working in the NHS for over 10 years. I am a compassionate and friendly psychologist with experience of working with children and adults across the lifespan. I also specialise in allergies and feeding difficulties. I love the work that I do and I aim to provide a warm, friendly non-judgmental environment for therapy with children, young people, adults and their families. I am a mother and an experienced yoga teacher and believe in taking a person centered approach to help people meet their goals and make positive changes in their lives.
I offer face to face or virtual sessions for children and adults. During the first session I aim to get to know you and understand the reasons why you have come to therapy. I will ask you questions about your current difficulties and the impact this is having on your life right now.
Talking to a stranger about emotional difficulties can understandably be very intimidating and overwhelming. My patients (and friends!) say that I am a friendly and approachable person and I aim to provide a safe safe therapeutic space to work towards your therapy goals. I believe in working holistically and draw from different therapeutic models.
