Clinical Psychologist, EMDR and CBT therapist.
London, Greater London, SW11

About me

I am a Clinical Psychologist registered with the HCPC, specialising in trauma, eating disorders, body image issues, and attachment difficulties. I am passionate about helping people overcome anxiety and develop the tools to build a meaningful and fulfilling life.

I work collaboratively with my clients, using an integrative, evidence-based approach that includes CBT, EMDR, and Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT). I tailor each treatment plan to the unique needs, values, and goals of every individual.

Training, qualifications & experience

I am trained at a doctoral level and have experience working with a broad range of common mental health difficulties, including anxiety, OCD, and depression, across both the private and NHS sectors.

I have specific experience in a leading NHS eating disorders service, working with individuals with anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and ARFID, as well as body image concerns and disordered eating more broadly. In addition, I specialise in EMDR for the treatment of trauma.

Alongside my clinical practice, I am completing a Doctorate in Psychology Applied to Cognitive Neuroscience, with my research focused on social cognition in individuals with Complex PTSD.

HCPC
Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC)

The HCPC are an independent, UK-wide health regulator. They set standards of professional training, performance and conduct for 16 professions.

They keep a register of health professionals who meet their standards, and they take action if registered health professionals fall below those standards. They were created by a piece of legislation called the Health Professions Order 2001.

Registration means that a health professional meets national standards for their professional training, performance and conduct.
