About me

One of the reasons I am so passionate about the work that I do is because I’ve been there. I have experienced my own difficult life events, especially in recent years. These experiences have given me a deeper understanding of what it is like to struggle with your mental health and how crucial it is to find the right therapist to help you navigate this path and come through to the other side feeling better. I put the therapeutic relationship at the heart of what I do because it is important that you feel safe, contained and understood. In sessions with me, I aim to work respectfully, collaboratively and non-judgementally with you so that we can (a) come to a shared understanding of your difficulties and; (b) find new and more helpful ways of managing them so that you can learn new skills and begin to make changes in the areas that are important to you. I have over 16 years experience working in the National Health Service (NHS) with adults aged 18 and over in various different roles such as primary care services (IAPT) and secondary care services (CMHT). Most of my clinical experience has been in CMHT services with those who had severe, complex and enduring needs.
