You’re ready for things to feel different, but you might not be sure how to get there. Perhaps you’re feeling trapped in cycles of intrusive thoughts, constant anxiety and self-doubt. Or maybe your relationship has become stuck in patterns of conflict, distance, or dissatisfaction, leaving you feeling unheard, disconnected, and just simply exhausted.
I offer practical, evidence-based tools that actually help. Whether your goal is to feel less controlled by obsessive thoughts, rebuild trust and connection in your relationship, or break free from unhelpful cycles, I aim to offer a clear and supportive path forward.
I am an experienced and accredited CBT and Couples Psychotherapist with over a decade of NHS, schools and the third sector. I act as a guest lecturer part-time on graduate university programmes and offer supervision for qualified and trainee therapists. I specialise in couples work, OCD, self-esteem, body image, anxiety disorders and trauma.
In my practice, I place a great deal of importance on cultivating a strong, trusting and supportive relationship between myself and my clients as I believe this is the key to doing successful and meaningful work together. I have an informal working style, non-judgmental approach and encourage collaboration and authenticity.
