As a Clinical Psychologist specialising in health psychology, I work with adults to navigate the emotional impact of cancer, chronic illness, and life transitions. I also support people experiencing anxiety, low mood, stress, trauma, and self-esteem difficulties. My approach combines evidence-based therapies with compassion, ensuring each session is tailored to you as an individual. I offer a calm and confidential space where you can talk openly and without judgement. This is a place to slow down, take stock, and begin to reconnect with yourself and what matters most.
I draw on advanced training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Compassion-Focused Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and Internal Family Systems model. This combination enables us to work flexibly—from reducing distress to exploring deeper patterns and parts of the self when helpful.
We may explore the stories you tell yourself, uncover personal strengths, and create new, more hopeful ways forward. Therapy with me is not only about easing distress—it’s about helping you live more fully, even in the face of uncertainty. If you’re ready to feel more supported and less alone in what you’re facing, I would be very happy to speak with you.
