About me

I am passionate about helping others reach their full potential. 

Unprocessed events from the past and present can often leave us feeling anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. This can lead to other ways to try and cope that may only exacerbate our difficulties. I believe that through gaining further skills this can help change our thinking patterns and through processing we can break our defence mechanisms to help improve our ability to cope.

  • Neurodivergence: ASD & ADHD

Alongside this I also have experience working with a wide range of difficulties. These include Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Psychosis, Grief and Addictions.

I am trained in and can offer a wide range of therapies including:

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
  • Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT)
  • Radically Open Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (RO-DBT)
  • Psychodynamic Therapy (PT)
  • Eye movement desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR)

During our first assessment session we can decide a treatment plan most suited to you and your needs. Weekly, fortnightly and monthly session options are available.

In addition to this I am a trained supervisor should this be an option you are wanting to explore.

Member organisations

Registered / Accredited

Registered / Accredited

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.

HCPC
Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC)

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.
