I am a Clinical Psychologist by profession and have worked with individuals from different ages and diverse backgrounds with a broad range of issues since 2001.

I provide an environment that is safe and non-judgemental for people to reflect on their thoughts and feelings. Talking through difficulties in therapy can increase a person's self-understanding and ability to reach their full potential.

Further information

Many of us are likely to experience anxiety and depression at some stage in life and this can be a turning point, which leads a person to decide to seek therapy. Therapy can be a way of turning this life challenge into increasing self-awareness and broadening a person's ability to respond differently to familiar difficulties. This is a personal process and unique to each individual. It involves sometimes having to address painful feelings or memories. I offer a space which is respectful and acknowledges the struggles a person is having in their life and of the difficulties in talking about them. The therapy I offer always aims to help the person work towards feeling more understanding and accepting of themselves and equipped to tackle their difficulties and approach life with greater confidence.
