Are you struggling with anxiety, depression or low self-esteem? Do you find it hard to be on your own side – never quite feeling enough? What would be possible if you felt more at home within yourself?
At Within Psychology, my therapy is guided by five core intentions – cultivating Worth, Authenticity, a sense of your Values, Empowerment and Self-Compassion. These WAVES within are already present in each of us, even when they become hidden beneath intense feelings of anxiety, persistent negative thoughts or distressing memories.
I use evidence-based approaches including EMDR, CBT and Internal Family Systems (IFS). Working together, I help you turn inward, gently and at your own pace, to support your natural capacity to heal from the inside out.
Change is possible. That might look like more ease and self-acceptance, picking back up things you once enjoyed, stepping outside your comfort zone, feeling closer in your relationships, or processing a difficult experience so you can feel more present, motivated and engaged with life.
I work with adults and young people (12+). I welcome anyone who has felt marginalised or like an outsider. My approach is deeply empathic, non-judgemental and inclusive of LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent clients, shaped by both clinical experience and personal values.

Training, qualifications & experience
I'm a Clinical Psychologist with a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology (2018) and over 10 years of clinical experience across the NHS and holistic settings in Southeast Asia. That's included NHS work with adults and young people, including a specialist LGBTQ+ service, as well as time in a mental health rehabilitation clinic abroad.
I work with a range of mental health difficulties, including anxiety, depression, PTSD/Complex PTSD, and shame and self-criticism. However, I tend not to pathologise people's difficulties, and work with people who don't necessarily fit diagnostic labels.
I draw on a range of evidence-based and accredited training, including:
• Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) – completed training in 2024
• Internal Family Systems (IFS) – completed the accredited Level 1 training course from IFS Institute UK
• CBT, including Trauma-Focused CBT
• Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT)
• ACT-informed principles of mindfulness and values-based work
I engage in regular clinical supervision and ongoing professional development, to make sure my practice stays safe, current and reflective.
Therapy with me is collaborative and individualised, with on-going feedback so we can adjust and grow together. My intention is to combine clinical expertise with genuine empathy, helping you uncover the potential that already exists within you.
