I am a deputy lead clinical psychologist in an NHS secondary care team, and I currently work part-time in private practice. Each day, I help people manage stressful life events and confront various psychological issues, such as anxiety, PTSD, low mood, performance optimisation, and coping with pressure. I can help you develop a deep understanding of your problems and how to respond to them flexibly. I believe that our thoughts influence our feelings, which in turn affect our actions. Sometimes, we must reflect on why we keep falling into the same patterns to move forward in life. Seeking help to escape a rut is perfectly acceptable.
I deliver high-quality treatments, including CBT (I'm BABCP accredited), ACT for performance optimisation (e.g., thriving in competitive sports), EMDR, and Mindfulness-Based Therapies. We will work towards your valued goals and create meaningful change in your life. I offer focused psychological therapy in a safe place. I also provide clinical supervision.
I have learned the value of self-reflection to feel unstuck. I will help you live purposefully and offer practical self-care tools. Together, we will overcome the obstacles holding you back in a safe and confidential therapy space. Others describe me as calm, attentive, and approachable. Please contact me via email, phone, or text for more information.

For anxiety, trauma and depression, I would typically work with you for 10 to 20 sessions with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing Therapy. We may contract further sessions to include other evidenced-based therapies, which we would review at session 15. Most clients see improvements in their wellbeing and symptoms within the first two months.

I often use Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) as it is collaborative. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and what you want to be different in your life. We will agree on the best approach for you. CBT shows how your thoughts elevate your emotions and guide action. I'll help you learn how to address those thoughts to change your feelings and actions for the better.
