You may appear composed and successful, yet beneath the surface feel an unrelenting pressure, cycles of stress, burnout, or emotion that no longer respond to willpower or routine solutions. Perhaps you’ve achieved much, yet something vital still feels unresolved. You may have tried therapy before, only to find it didn’t reach the depth you needed. I work with individuals who value insight, precision, and meaningful change. My specialisms include trauma therapy, EMDR, executive therapy, and addiction recovery.
Drawing on over three decades of clinical experience as a UKCP-registered psychotherapist, I integrate advanced psychological methods with an existential and integrative approach that restores coherence where complexity has taken hold. Clients often describe our work as a turning point — the moment things finally make sense, and life begins to realign.
Therapy with me is focused, confidential, and transformative. If you are ready to move beyond managing symptoms and begin designing lasting change from within, I would be glad to explore how we might work together.

I work with trauma, PTSD, executive stress, addiction, and relationship difficulties. In our first sessions, we clarify your goals and create a tailored plan. This may include EMDR to process traumatic memories and integrative work to restore balance and purpose. Clients often notice greater clarity, reduced distress, and renewed resilience within the early stages of therapy.
