About me

Hi, I’m Saffron. I’m a Clinical Psychologist and I work with adults experiencing a range of difficulties including depression, stress, anxiety, trauma, low self-esteem and OCD. I provide a compassionate, warm, and supportive space to explore what has brought you to therapy. Our sessions will be focused on what you want to achieve from therapy so that we are working towards making changes that are meaningful to you.

I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) and EMDR. I will tailor our sessions based on your individual needs and preferences. 

I understand how hard it can be to take that first step in reaching out for support, and how important it is to find a therapist who feels like the right fit for you. Please feel free to get in touch if you have any questions or would like to arrange an initial appointment. I’m registered with BUPA, AXA, Aviva, Vitality, and WPA.
