Clinical Psychologist

About me

Do you struggle with feeling at ease? Do you find it difficult to relax and to take time to really connect with the people and world around you? Do you find yourself in overdrive, finding it difficult to slow down? Do you then find yourself running out of energy, entering a state of collapse where it is difficult to do the things you need to do? Are these times fraught with self-criticism for not performing as you should? It may be that you would describe yourself as anxious or depressed.  You may find that these difficulties are causing unpleasant physical symptoms or making it difficult to gain enjoyment from life. You may have been living like this a long time but now find yourself at breaking point and unable to keep up with the demands of the day to day.   

We are all built to experience low mood and anxiety as it is part of the human experience. Distress tends to arise when it is no longer a passing feeling, when it becomes part of the everyday. It can then feel very troubling. How did I get here? Why am I feeling like this? I should be able to cope with life. I should be able to shake this off. It can feel like a deep dark hole that it is really difficult to escape from.

I am a Clinical Psychologist specialising in anxiety and mood disorders. I spent 7 years at University gaining my qualifications and have over 20 years of experience working as a psychologist within the NHS and in private practice. I draw on all of this knowledge and experience when helping people to navigate their way from feeling they are only surviving life to thriving. I do this through using a number of therapeutic approaches, but the main approaches I use are: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT); Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) and Compassion-Focussed Therapy (CFT). Clinical Psychologists are a registered and regulated profession, giving you assurance that you are seeing someone with the skills to be able to help.
