I am an HCPC registered counselling psychologist and UKCP integrative psychotherapist with over 25 years’ experience supporting people of all ages in the NHS and wider community. Whether you are a child, parent or adult seeking support, my aim is to help by taking the time to listen to your story, and understand exactly where you need support. I use evidence-based psychological tools to come up with a formulation specific to what you bring and work together in suggestions for moving forward. My experience working in GP practices, hospital wards and charities has give me a breadth of expertise and enables me to work with complexity.
Therapy with a psychologist provides an opportunity to discuss you or your child’s emotions, thought patterns and behaviour with a highly trained professional who sits outside that situation.
As a psychotherapist, I can help you unpack complexities within your story in a therapeutic space that offers safety for questioning, considering different possibilities and creative exploration.
The practice specialises in the intersection between mental and physical health across all ages from 5-99 years, with experience supporting people living with chronic conditions e.g. diabetes, MS, Chrohn’s Disease, fibromyalgia, IBS, tinnitus, migraines, neurological conditions and rare genetic diseases.
I use an integrative approach rooted in existentialism, tailored for each client including acceptance Commitment Therapy, Compassionate Focused Therapy, Narrative Therapy for trauma, Play Therapy, Photo Therapy, and relational psychotherapy.
