About me
I am a Senior Practitioner Psychologist (HCPC-registered) providing psychological therapy and specialist neurodevelopmental assessment.
Her work is integrative and collaborative. She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioural Therapy (DBT), Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, and dialogical approaches such as Open Dialogue.
Each piece of work begins with developing a careful psychological understanding of the challenges someone may be facing. From there, therapy or assessment is shaped collaboratively to respond to the individual needs and circumstances of each person.
Alongside therapy, she provides specialist assessments for Autism Spectrum Conditions (ASD) and Attention-Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) across the lifespan.
Sessions are offered online and can be conducted in English, Italian, Spanish.
Private clients are welcome, as well as those covered by major health insurers including AXA, Bupa, Vitality, Allianz, and WPA.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have extensive training and experience across a range of clinical settings, with a strong background in clinical and health psychology and psychological therapy. I am trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), psychoanalytic psychotherapy, Open Dialogue, and art therapy, and I work integratively, adapting my approach to the needs of each individual.
I hold a PhD, and my academic and clinical training inform a thoughtful, reflective, and evidence-based approach to psychological work. Alongside my training, I have significant experience working within UK clinical services, including NHS settings and Tier 4 inpatient services, and within complex multidisciplinary environments.
My clinical roles have involved psychological assessment, formulation, risk management, and working with individuals experiencing acute distress, trauma, and complex mental health difficulties. I have worked across the lifespan, supporting children and adolescents, adults, parents, and families, and I have experience contributing to and leading multidisciplinary team (MDT) discussions and care planning.
I have worked with a wide range of presentations, including anxiety, depression, eating disorders, trauma and PTSD, neurodevelopmental conditions such as ADHD and autism, emotional regulation difficulties, relationship challenges, and crisis situations. I also have experience supporting individuals living with chronic illness and chronic pain.
I engage in ongoing professional development and supervision to ensure my practice remains ethical, reflective, and clinically robust.

Further information
My way of working is collaborative, flexible, and carefully paced. I offer both practical guidance and emotional containment, alongside space for deeper exploration, healing, and self-understanding. Therapy is adapted to what is most needed at any given time — whether that is stabilising day-to-day life, managing symptoms, or exploring longer-standing patterns and experiences.
I pay close attention to the practical realities of everyday life. This includes supporting organisation, emotional regulation, decision-making, and coping strategies that help you stay afloat during periods of stress, while also creating space for deeper reflection, acceptance, and personal growth when appropriate.
Work is goal-focused and outcome-informed, with regular review and adjustment. I work collaboratively, checking that therapy remains relevant to your needs, capacity, and priorities, particularly when balancing therapy alongside work, family, health, and other commitments.
My approach allows for depth without losing grounding. I aim to move at a pace that feels safe and effective, combining structure with flexibility, and adapting therapy to your personal goals, values, and life stage.
Overall, my focus is on helping people develop greater clarity, resilience, self-understanding, and confidence, in ways that are realistic, meaningful, and sustainable.
