About me
Trauma-, neurodiversity- and attachment-informed practitioner. Whether you are struggling with complex mental or emotional difficulties or want to gain a better understanding of yourself and your existence, I provide an inviting, encouraging, and confidential space for us to make sense of your present situation.
I offer practical support to manage mental health symptoms; I also bring extensive experience and theoretical knowledge to the process of clarifying what has led to your present situation and what may be keeping you stuck there. Sessions thus often focus on exploring relational patterns, significant past events, and beliefs about yourself, others, and the world.
Throughout, my focus is on exploring and understanding your individual experience. As an independent practitioner, I offer a completely bespoke service based on the needs and goals we identify in our first sessions.
Please email me for further information or to book a session.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have over seven years of clinical experience and eleven years of academic experience in psychotherapy and psychology, hold a BA and MSc in Psychology and a doctorate in Counselling Psychology. I am trained in relational psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioural (CBT), and existential therapeutic approaches, and draw on all three to tailor my approach to each client's needs. I am a chartered member of the British Psychological Society and a member of the Society for Existential Analysis.
