I am a counselling psychologist with over ten years’ experience working in adult mental health settings and am registered with the Health & Care Professions Council (HCPC). I trained in three different models (person centred, psychodynamic and CBT) and draw on therapeutic approaches known to help clients with their presenting difficulties. Therapy will initially involve a careful assessment and discussion of options. We will then meet for an agreed period of time and work together towards chosen goals. I have worked in a variety of adult mental health settings and am experienced in helping people with difficulties, such as: depression, anxiety, PTSD, childhood trauma and complex emotional needs. Outside of private practice I am employed as a consultant psychologist with a local NHS trust. Please note I am currently only able to offer digital meetings.

Chartered Clinical Psychologist

I have worked in the area of mental health and well-being for over twenty-five years.

I have a broad range of experience working with people with a wide range of psychological difficulties including anxiety, Autistic Spectrum Conditions (ASC), complex needs, depression, substance misuse problems, and trauma. I have worked with adults, young people and their families for the past 25 years.

Alongside working with individuals, I work with couples and families, including the assessment and treatment of complex needs, which may include risk and child protection issues; as well as individual therapy with young people. I also provide consultation to other professionals and supervision to trainee clinical psychologists.

I also provide expert witness services in the areas of family law, criminal law, capacity, and asylum seekers.

I use an integrative therapeutic approach including Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT); Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR); Emotion Focussed Therapy (EFT); Motivational interviewing; Mentalisation; solution-focused brief therapy; narrative therapy and other systemic approaches.

My overall approach is to help people discover their own resources to deal with difficult life issues.
