About me
I am a Practitioner Psychologist, Integrative Psychotherapist, EMDR Therapist, and Clinical Supervisor with extensive experience supporting individuals with mild-to-severe psychological difficulties across a number of clinical settings (NHS and private sector). Alongside my private clinical work, I work in academia as a researcher and Director of Studies for a Doctoral Programme.
My area of speciality is working with complex trauma and PTSD. Although trained in a number of modalities, my practice is largely informed by psychodynamic theory and EMDR.
If you have any questions about starting treatment, please don't hesitate to call or email me.

UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.

Additional information
Therapy
If you are interested in us working together, please feel free to call or email me. From here we can arrange a free 15-minute telephone consultation; please note there is no obligation to attend therapy with me after. This is an opportunity for you to speak with me and ask any questions you might have, for me to get a little information on what you would like support with, and for us to determine if I am the right person to offer that support.
If we agree to move forward, then an initial assessment is £105 for a 60 minute appointment. After this, each session will run for 50 minutes and cost £100.
