About me
I am a highly experienced Clinical Psychologist with 22 years of NHS experience, alongside 14 years in private practice. As science practitioners, clinical psychologists aim to reduce psychological distress and enhance and promote psychological well-being by person-centred understandings and the systematic application of appropriate evidence-based psychological approaches. I have worked with clients presenting with a broad range of issues, including anxiety, low mood, self-esteem issues and eating disorders. I specialise in trauma work, shame-base difficulties and perinatal issues.
I am committed to helping each person that I work with to understand their experiences and make the changes necessary to achieve a positive and fulfilling life.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have a First in Psychology and a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology (Plymouth University). I have 22 years' experience in NHS Secondary Care Mental Health Services and more that 14 years' experience in private practice. I also have further training in third-wave cognitive behavioural therapies, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) for emotion regulation, Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) and family therapy, including systemic couples therapy.
