You might be functioning on the outside while feeling low, anxious, overwhelmed or stuck on the inside. I work with clients experiencing difficulties such as depression and anxiety-related problems (including PTSD, OCD, Social Anxiety, Panic, Phobias), trauma, stress, habit disorders, self-esteem, low confidence, attachment and relationship difficulties. With over 10 years' experience in mental health, I support people who want to better understand what's been driving these patterns and find steadier, healthier ways of moving forward.

You might look like you’re doing fine — you keep things together, show up for others, and push through. But inside, something feels off. Maybe you feel stuck, restless, or disconnected from yourself, unsure what’s next or why you can’t quite feel at ease.
Therapy with me is a space to slow down and reconnect with what’s really going on beneath the surface. We’ll explore your thoughts, emotions, and the way your body holds tension and patterns from the past — not to stay there, but to help you release what no longer serves you and create space for something new.

Therapy offers a confidential space in which to talk and explore your feelings, thoughts and actions and so develop a better understanding of yourself and others. I aim to create a safe, non-judgemental space from which this exploration can happen. You might be struggling with grief, anxiety, depression, unhealthy behaviours or low self-worth. Or perhaps you are at a crossroads in your work or a relationship that you would like the time and help to think about. Some people come to therapy with very specific goals and other people have more broad or general needs. Either is fine.

My name is Sabrina. I am a UKCP Psychotherapist in training and an HCPC registered Dietitian. I have many years of experience in NHS and private mental health services, including working with eating disorders across inpatient and outpatient settings. My approach is informed by psychodynamic and existential thinking, while grounded in a relational way of working. I am interested in understanding distress rather than simply trying to fix it. Our difficulties can hold meaning and may be shaped by our experiences, relationships and the ways we have learned to understand ourselves and the world.
