About me
I am a Clinical Psychologist providing online counselling and online therapy. I have helped people recover from problems including phobias, depression, generalised anxiety, social anxiety, addictions, trauma, relationship difficulties, OCD, body dysmorphia, and personality disorders.
My aim is to create a safe, non-judgemental environment in which difficulties may be constructively understood, and appropriate strategies can be applied to address them.I believe that a good relationship is essential for effective therapy. I strive to be compassionate, considerate and thoughtful in all of my interactions with my clients.
I draw on significant clinical experience in the NHS and private settings to provide a nuanced approach to client difficulties. My work is primarily informed by Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, but I also integrate ideas from Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, ACT and Humanistic Psychotherapy.
I have previously worked in the NHS at the Maudsley and Lambeth Hospitals in South London. I have published psychological research with the Institute of Psychiatry (Kings College London), and at presently have a role as a teaching associate at the Salomons Centre for Applied Psychology.
Please contact me if you wish to arrange a consultation or have any other questions.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have a doctorate in Clinical Psychology and a masters degree in Psychology (Distinction). I also have an undergraduate degree in Philosophy from the University of Bristol.
I have worked in the NHS and private healthcare settings for six years. This has included work in many different kinds of services including addictions, older adults, child and adolescent mental health teams, inpatient settings, primary care therapies services and neuropsychiatric services.
Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The HCPC are an independent, UK-wide health regulator. They set standards of professional training, performance and conduct for 16 professions.
They keep a register of health professionals who meet their standards, and they take action if registered health professionals fall below those standards. They were created by a piece of legislation called the Health Professions Order 2001.
Registration means that a health professional meets national standards for their professional training, performance and conduct.
