About me
I am a BABCP-accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist with over 20 years’ experience helping young people and adults with a wide range of difficulties. My approach is practical and supportive, focusing on how thoughts, feelings, and behaviours interact, and how new strategies can bring lasting change.
Alongside CBT, I also use Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), always tailoring sessions to your individual needs. My aim is to provide a safe and understanding space where you feel listened to, while learning skills to manage challenges with more confidence.
I have a particular interest in supporting people experiencing anxiety, OCD, eating difficulties, or low self-esteem. My practice is based in North London, near Archway Station/Upper Holloway, and I am recognised by a number of leading health insurers including AXA PPP, Aviva, BUPA, WPA, Vitality, and Cigna.
Please feel free to get in touch if you’d like to find out more or arrange an initial appointment.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am an accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist with over 20 years’ experience working with children, young people, and families in both the United States and the United Kingdom.
I attended UCL in London for a post graduate degree in CBT and have had training in many areas of mental health difficulties throughout my career.
I have supported clients with a wide range of difficulties and have a particular passion for working with teenagers, students, and young adults. With this age group, I often help clients manage challenges such as low mood, anxiety, self-harm, relationship difficulties, exam stress, and learning-related problems.
My approach to therapy is collaborative, evidence-based, and always tailored to the individual. I have received specialist training in working with children and adolescents experiencing anxiety disorders and depression, while also supporting clients across all age ranges.
