About me
I am a Clinical Psychologist with experience of working within mental health settings for over 14 years. I work with clients in Banbury, Bicester, Brackley and across Oxfordshire and Northamptonshire.
I work with people with a range of difficulties and ages, including adolescents, adults and older adults. I work collaboratively with clients to develop a shared understanding of their current difficulties and to support them to work towards their goals. I believe it is important to build a safe and trusting space where a person can feel able to express themselves without fear of judgement.
I draw upon a range of evidence-based therapy approaches, including Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
I am able to offer short term sessions, as well as longer-term interventions, depending on what your goals may be. Taking the first step to seek support and find the 'right fit' can feel daunting. I offer an initial 15 minute free, no-obligation phone call, to discuss any questions you may have so you can make an informed decision about pursuing therapy.
