About me
I am a Clinical Psychologist and EMDR Therapist with experience working with people across the lifespan. I am trained in, and enjoy working with, a wide range of presenting difficulties, including trauma, anxiety, low mood, obsessive-compulsive disorder, low self-esteem, stress, fears and phobias, grief and loss, and chronic health conditions. I currently work within an NHS specialist adult service, supporting individuals with severe and enduring mental health difficulties. I enjoy working flexibly with people of all ages and adapt my approach to meet each individual’s needs.
I take an integrative approach to therapy, drawing on a range of psychological models and evidence-based techniques, including EMDR, to tailor our work together in a way that feels most helpful and meaningful for you.
Choosing a therapist is a personal and important decision. Therapy often involves talking about sensitive experiences and challenging emotions, so it’s essential that you feel safe, understood, and able to trust the person you’re working with. Feeling comfortable with your therapist is one of the strongest predictors of meaningful progress.
Training, qualifications & experience

During my training, I gained further experience in adult community mental health teams, learning disability services, and older adult community teams, alongside completing a year-long placement in a specialist paediatric service. I am trained in, and enjoy working with, a wide range of presenting difficulties, including trauma, anxiety, low mood, obsessive-compulsive disorder, psychosis, low self-esteem, stress, school-related difficulties, achievement and performance issues, fears and phobias, grief and loss, chronic health conditions, and difficulties with anger.
