About me

I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist offering online therapy across the UK. With a background in the NHS and private practice, I specialise in helping adults who feel stuck with trauma, anxiety, stress or low self-esteem.

Therapy with me is collaborative and practical. We’ll begin by understanding what has brought you here, then work together to create a clear plan. I use evidence-based approaches, including CBT, EMDR and Compassion Focused Therapy, to help you process what feels stuck and build lasting change.

I also offer EMDR intensives, structured blocks of extended sessions designed for people who want focused progress in a shorter time. Whether you prefer weekly sessions or a concentrated approach, my aim is to provide a safe, supportive space that helps you move forward with greater confidence and ease.

Training, qualifications & experience

I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist with nearly 20 years’ experience in the NHS and private practice. I have worked with a wide range of difficulties, including anxiety, stress, depression, grief and trauma/PTSD, including the impact of historical abuse.

Alongside my clinical work, I have supported NHS staff and other organisations to improve workplace wellbeing. This has involved assessing organisational health, consulting with managers, and providing interventions to reduce stress and support resilience at both individual and team level.

Registered / Accredited

Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.

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.
