About me

I am a chartered Counselling Psychologist registered with the Health and Care Professionals Council (HCPC) and the British Psychological Society (BPS). 

I have worked across the lifespan and have a plethora of experience in private practice and the National Health Service (NHS). 

I offer a 15 minute consultation to find out how I can help you, if you then like to proceed, with the first meeting I offer an assessment (asking you lots of questions about yourself), then I formulate (gather the information you've given me), so I can think which evidenced based psychological interventions I can administer.

My interventions tend to be integrative; I use CBT, CFT, SFT, Humanistic, Psychodynamic and approach therapy with a compassionate, authentic, non-judgmental manner. 

I work with everyday life challenges/stressors, physical and mental health concerns. I have worked with but limited to:
