I am a Senior Chartered Clinical Psychologist, registered with The Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), and accredited by the British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP) as a CBT Therapist. My therapeutic work is currently with adults and adolescents with no upper age limit. I can support people with wide range of mental health difficulties, and I have a special interest in autism, in addition to anxiety disorders (including OCD) and trauma. I work both face-to-face via my South Oxfordshire clinic and online, and can offer a format flexible to your needs.
I provide evidence-based psychological therapy, and my primary therapeutic modality is cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT), which is flexibly and collaboratively adapted to your needs. I have a special interest in autism, anxiety, and trauma. In addition to therapy, I can also offer post-diagnostic sessions to support autistic individuals or their families.
I believe in developing a safe and respectful relationship, and a collaborative approach to therapy, joining you on your journey to self-discovery, working towards your goals, and living a life in line with your values. You will be respected as an expert, and we can work to develop a shared understanding and move towards positive change.
