About me
Are anxiety, intrusive thoughts or constant worry taking up more of your life than you'd like? You might find yourself going over things again and again, expecting the worst, checking or seeking reassurance, avoiding situations, struggling with panic, or feeling detached from yourself and the world around you.
I'm a BABCP-accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist offering in-person sessions in Surbiton and online therapy across the UK, for adults and teens. I have a particular interest in OCD, panic, low self-esteem, PTSD, and feeling unreal or disconnected (depersonalisation and derealisation). I also work with social anxiety, health anxiety, worry, perfectionism, low mood, stress and adult ADHD.
My approach is warm, collaborative and practical. Together we'll make sense of the patterns that keep the problem going, and find strategies that make a real difference in your everyday life. CBT is structured and focused, but every session is shaped around what matters most to you.
Therapy isn't just about learning techniques. I want you to have space to understand what you're going through and to talk openly without judgement. We'll review your progress regularly so that therapy stays useful and focused on your goals.
Online sessions can fit around work and other commitments, wherever you are in the UK. I offer a free 15-minute introductory call, so you can ask questions, tell me a little about what you're looking for and decide whether working together feels right.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a BABCP-accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist with postgraduate training in CBT. I have experience working with adults and young people in the NHS, in private practice and with specialist mental health services.
I provide evidence-based CBT for anxiety, OCD, panic attacks, low self-esteem, PTSD and feeling unreal or disconnected (depersonalisation and derealisation). I also work with social anxiety, health anxiety, worry, perfectionism, low mood, stress, work-related difficulties and adult ADHD.
My work follows current, research-based CBT models, including exposure and response prevention (ERP) for OCD and trauma-focused CBT for PTSD, tailored to each person's difficulties and goals. I have regular clinical supervision, keep up to date through ongoing professional development, and work in line with BABCP ethical and professional standards.
