About me

Throughout my professional journey I have gained a  range of experience of working within various NHS services over the past eight years.  I have gained specialist skills in working with psychological difficulties such as anxiety, depression, trauma, self-esteem, emotion regulation, building better interpersonal relationships,  self-harm, addictions (gambling and alcohol), bereavement, personality disorder and work related stress.   I also have a special interest in Traumatic Births and I have published in the midwifery journal.  Title of my publishable piece is called, 'The Journey towards Resilience following a Traumatic Birth'.

I integrate a number of models within my  therapeutic practice such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Mindfulness, Compassion Focused Therapy and Psychodynamic therapy.  My approach is collaborative and it will be dependent on what you need in that moment. 

I would like to invite you into a safe space where you can discuss your struggles. I believe that through the process of therapy we are able to heal and live a more valued life. We all have the capacity to  heal and build our resilience when we feel supported and validated.

I offer a free 20 minute telephone consultation to give you the opportunity to decide if I am a good fit for you.
