Everyone needs a helping hand. Therapy can be a place where our lives, and its challenges can be safely explored, and you can start living your life in the direction you desire.
Book a sessionI have over 20 years of extensive clinical experience working with adults, young people and children, individually and in groups, and worked with couples and families. We may consider therapy due to difficult life events, reviewing our life purpose and when we are challenged by unhelpful thoughts and feelings. I am passionate about supporting and empowering people to live their life in the way they desire. It can be a difficult journey to explore and achieve this on our own, and I apply evidence-based approaches with my clients, working together as a team, to best support personal needs. I believe therapy is reliant on a good therapeutic relationship, and endeavour to build trust, respect and compassion, to collaboratively and sensitively work towards client' personal goals. I am a Chartered Counselling Psychologist, registered with the BPS and HCPC. I qualified as a Psychologist in 2016 (DPsych). I practiced as an Integrative Psychotherapist for 10 years prior to completing doctoral training. I have extended my training in many evidence-based psychotherapies including EMDR, DBT, ACT and other Trauma-specific approaches ,such as NET and TF-CBT, as well as other mindfulness-based approaches. I have practiced privately, for the NHS, Local Authority, Courts, and National Charities, and helped develop several psychotherapy services for some services. I work with a wide range of presentations, and issues. I have specialism in areas such as Trauma, Family & Relationship issues, Parenting, Anxiety and Depression Disorders, Addiction, and Personality Disorders. My therapeutic modality is embedded with Humanistic, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Trauma Focused interventions, integrated with suitable evidence-based approaches to support your needs and goals, which remains collaborative. I am here to support you on your journey of change, growth and living your life in the way you desire.
