You may be living with intrusive thoughts that never seem fully resolved, feeling caught in difficult patterns around food or your body, or finding that traumatic or earlier experiences continue to affect how you feel, relate to others and manage everyday life. These difficulties can become exhausting and isolating, particularly when previous support has not fully understood what is keeping them going.

I specialise in working with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), eating disorders and eating difficulties, including ARFID, binge eating disorder, anorexia and bulimia, and trauma or Complex PTSD. I also have particular experience supporting people with emetophobia and those whose difficulties overlap with ADHD, autism or other aspects of neurodivergence.

I am an Integrative Psychotherapist, BABCP Accredited CBT Therapist, Schema Therapist and EMDR Practitioner with over ten years of clinical experience. I offer face-to-face therapy in Menai Bridge, Anglesey, and Llandudno, Conwy, alongside online therapy across the UK.

How I Can Help

I work with people experiencing:

• Eating disorders and difficulties involving food, eating or body image, including ARFID, binge eating disorder, anorexia and bulimia
• OCD and intrusive thoughts, including where the particular theme may feel frightening, confusing or difficult to discuss
• Emetophobia and related patterns of avoidance, checking and reassurance seeking
• Trauma, PTSD and Complex PTSD
• Difficulties involving shame, self-criticism, emotional regulation and relationships
• Experiences in which ADHD, autism or other aspects of neurodivergence affect mental health or access to therapy

You do not need to have a formal diagnosis or know which type of therapy you need before getting in touch. Some people come to therapy with one clearly defined difficulty, while others are experiencing several overlapping concerns that do not fit neatly into a single category.

We can begin by making sense of what you are experiencing, what may be keeping the difficulty going and what you would most like to change. My role is not simply to apply a technique, but to work collaboratively with you to develop an individual understanding of the difficulty and find a way forward that feels both manageable and meaningful.

My Approach

Therapy is not one-size-fits-all. I work integratively and draw on evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), CBT-E for eating disorders, CBT-AR for ARFID, Inference-Based CBT (I-CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for OCD, Schema Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) and EMDR.

The approach we use will depend on your experiences, needs, preferences and goals. For OCD, this means that we can consider approaches beyond standard ERP, including Inference-Based CBT where appropriate. For eating difficulties, therapy can attend not only to symptoms but also to neurodivergence, trauma, relationships and the wider context in which the difficulty has developed and is being maintained.

Where appropriate, EMDR may be used to help process traumatic or distressing experiences and reduce the impact they continue to have in the present. We would consider this together as part of a shared understanding of your needs rather than assuming that one approach is right for everyone.

I aim to offer therapy that is collaborative, compassionate, LGBTQI+ inclusive and neurodivergent-affirming. I place particular importance on making therapy accessible for people who have previously felt misunderstood, found standard approaches difficult to engage with or felt expected to fit themselves into a particular model of therapy.

Experience and Training

I have over ten years of clinical experience and have worked across NHS mental health services, specialist eating disorder services, trauma services and private practice, supporting people with a range of complex and often long-standing difficulties.

I hold a degree in Psychology, a Master’s in Integrative Psychotherapy and a Postgraduate Diploma in CBT, alongside further specialist training in eating disorders, Schema Therapy and EMDR.

Alongside my clinical practice, I work as a clinical supervisor and trainer, supporting other therapists in developing their knowledge and clinical practice. I am also the current Chair of the BABCP Eating Disorders Special Interest Group.

Next Steps

Reaching out for therapy can feel like a significant step, particularly if you have been managing these difficulties alone or have previously received support that did not feel like the right fit.
