About me

I work with adults who appear to be coping on the outside but feel stuck underneath.

You may be managing work and responsibilities while struggling with issues such as self-doubt, shame, worry and low motivation.

You may be feeling stuck.

As an accredited Clinical Psychologist, we begin by building a clear understanding of the problems you are experience and what are keeping them going.

We then work collaboratively, step by step, to address these patterns.

My approach is grounded in psychological theory and shaped by my experience of helping adults from diverse backgrounds.

Our work stays focused on what matters most to you. I tailor my approach to the difficulties you’re facing, recognising that therapy needs to be shaped around the individual.

I specialise in integrative, evidence-based work, with a compassionate and structured approach.

My style is collaborative, warm and empathic. To help you decide whether I’m the right fit, I offer a free 20 minute consultation.

This is a chance to ask any questions, briefly talk through what you’re looking for support with, and see whether working together feels like a good match.

If you’d like to arrange a consultation or if you have any questions, please contact me via phone or email.
