About me
I have been working as a qualified clinical psychologist for over a decade. I work with both individuals (adults) and couples. I have experience working with people who are dealing with depression, anxiety, trauma, loss, chronic health conditions, changes to life circumstances (e.g. relationship endings, changes in health) as well as different kinds of relational issues (e.g. infidelity, communication difficulties).
I work using an integrative approach, drawing on various evidence-based therapeutic models to support my clients in managing their difficulties such as; psychodynamic psychotherapy, ACT, DBT, CBT, CFT and EMDR. I am an Accredited EMDR Practitioner with EMDR Europe.
Whilst some of the people I work with may have a specific mental health condition that they need support in managing, I also know that everyone experiences some form of challenge and difficulty at some point, whether it's related to work or relationships or feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns of behaviour. Therapy can offer not only support for symptoms of mental health conditions but also a way to understand yourself better and to work gently with yourself to bring about the changes you are seeking.
