I help people reclaim their lives when physical health and mental well-being collide. As a Clinical Psychologist (DClinPsy) with NHS and private experience, I specialize in the "stuck" places-navigating diagnoses, health-related trauma and life transitions. Whether you are adjusting to a new diagnosis or managing long-term physical conditions, I offer a high-level, collaborative space to build resilience. I integrate evidence-based tools like ACT, DBT and CBT to help you move from feeling overwhelmed to regaining your sense of agency and autonomy. You don't have to navigate this complexity alone.

Hello, and thanks for looking at my profile. I’m an accredited therapist with over 19 years experience, and wholly comfortable in helping people with a range of issues, from trauma to depression, abuse to anxiety, and many more. For me, the most important element in therapy is whether you feel you can trust me - and I know this is not always easy. You’ve likely been hurt and perhaps a little wary and weary of people. I’m not going to “fix” you, I can’t! Though the good news is, by working collaboratively, you absolutely can heal the wounds you carry, and begin to live the life you want to.

The idea of my approach is an integrative one: I've studied, and I'm qualified to deliver, a mixed modality of therapies to address client issues. From psychodynamic active listening and using a safe space to get things out in the open, or perhaps using CBT techniques to address something specific, either way - I'm equipped to help guide you through what it is that is troubling you, or holding you back, from moving forward.
