About me

I am a Consultant Clinical and Forensic Psychologist and have had a private practice, Woodlands Consulting and Therapy, since January 2008. My therapy rooms are based in Norwich, with ample parking and easy access to public transport. I am registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) as well as the British Psychological Society (BPS).

I offer assessment and therapy for a range of difficulties, such as relationship problems, anxiety, depression, substance abuse and trauma. People can often experience difficulties that may feel overwhelming and may be impacting on various areas of their life. I will undertake a comprehensive assessment whereby your current difficulties are explored and considered within the context of your life experiences, relationships, abilities and cultural background. Using this information we will explore together your options for therapy, and what would suit your needs best. I am trained to use a range of therapies and will tailor interventions to suit your individual needs.

Training, qualifications & experience

I am a Chartered Clinical and Chartered Forensic Psychologist and have extensive experience in a range of therapeutic approaches. I am also a CAT (Cognitive Analytic Therapy) practitioner and supervisor. I specialise in working with adolescents and young adults, but also work with adults and older adults.

Please visit my website for more details about my qualifications, experience and specific areas of expertise.
