About me
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or burdened by past experiences, therapy can help you make sense of what you're going through and find a path forward that feels more manageable and hopeful.
I'm a BABCP accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist with 20 years' experience supporting adults across the NHS, private, and independent sectors. I have experience of working with a range of different emotional difficulties. I specialise in helping people navigate anxiety, depression, trauma and PTSD. I also bring a growing focus on neurodivergence to my work, underpinned by additional training and lived experience.
Whether you’re struggling to cope, wanting to understand yourself better, or simply feeling that something needs to change. I offer a space where you can feel supported, respected, and understood.
I tailor therapy to meet your individual needs; there’s no one-size-fits-all. Together, we’ll find an approach that suits your personality, goals, and the issues you’re facing. I draw from a range of evidence-based therapies, predominately using CBT & EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing) but complementing this with compassion and acceptance strategies (CFT & ACT) as well as more somatic and ego state work.
Reaching out for support can feel daunting, I understand that. That’s why I offer a warm, compassionate, and non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences at your own pace.
If you’re ready to make a change, or simply want to explore whether therapy could help, I’d be happy to offer a free initial consultation. We’ll talk about what’s going on for you and how we might work together.
