Book a sessionHi! I am a fully accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist with the BABCP and Interpersonal Therapist with IPT UK. I have extensive experience working across the lifespan, supporting individuals with a broad spectrum of mental health challenges—from common presentations to more complex and enduring difficulties. My clinical practice includes the effective treatment of depression, low self esteem. obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), emotional dysregulation, personality disorder, disassociation, specific traumas, health anxiety, social anxiety, panic disorder, agoraphobia, and body dysmorphic disorder (BDD). While my core training is in CBT and IPT, I also use other therapy modalities including Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) to offer an integrative and flexible approach that meets the diverse needs of the people I support. I also have experience of adapting theapy to suit my neurodiverse clients including those with Autism. My initial sessions usually involve an assessment of the main presenting problems before we move onto developing a formulation that is tailored to the individual. From there a treatment plan is created which best supports clients to reach their therapy goals. I adopt a compassionate, client-centered approach to therapy, fostering a safe and non-judgmental environment where clients feel heard, respected, and empowered. Building strong therapeutic relationships is central to my practice, and I am committed to working collaboratively with clients to understand their unique experiences and tailor interventions that are both evidence-based and personally meaningful. I offer availability for sessions outside of the usual 9-5 including some weekend appointments.
