About me
I am a Clinical Psychologist with 10 years of experience working as a therapist in the NHS across many different services. Therapy can feel daunting and deeply vulnerable. My practice is grounded in building a safe, honest, and supportive therapeutic relationship. Together, this will allow us to better understand your difficulties, their origins and how we might work together toward a more preferred future.
I am experienced in working across the lifespan and with people experiencing a wide range of difficulties. This includes experiences of depression, anxiety, and trauma. I have a particular interest in helping people explore the relationship between early attachment, trauma, and emotional distress. I can draw on training in several therapies to support you.
I offer a free 15 minute phone call to discuss your needs, for you to ask me any questions, and decide whether we feel we would be a good fit to work together. Please email me to arrange this. My current availability is evening only.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am registered and accountable to the HCPC as a registered Clinical Psychologist.
My core training is in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) which is evidence based to support with a number of mental health concerns. I am increasingly interested in how patterns of relationships are at the heart of and perpetuate emotional distress. I am currently undertaking training in Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT).
