Specialising in self-esteem, anxiety and adjustment, I believe that therapy is about helping people break free from stuck patterns using compassion, acceptance and the strengths they already have.
Book a sessionHi, I’m Dr Mia. I’m a HCPC-registered clinical psychologist. I offer warm, compassionate therapy designed to help you live the life you deserve and break free from stuck patterns using compassion, acceptance and the strengths you already have. I have worked with a broad range of people who have experienced a number of mental health challenges and concerns, and I specialise in self-esteem, anxiety and adjustment to major life transitions (particularly health concerns). I qualified as a Clinical Psychologist from University of Bath in 2018 and has been working in mental health services since 2013. She has worked with a wide range of individuals, and has enjoyed being able to work creatively with people to help them create a valued and meaningful life. I draw upon evidence-based therapies and am particularly passionate about Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Compassion Focussed Therapy and Mindfulness-based Therapies. In these therapies, we pay particular attention to understanding ‘stuck points’, which are usually understandable when we consider the challenging circumstances you find yourselves in. I am an EMDR therapist, and can support you to process traumatic memories and move through the experience of adjustment and change. I have engaged in extensive training in acceptance and compassionate based approaches and CBT. I hope to meet you with compassion and help understand why your mind acts as it does. Letting go of blame, we can work together to find a way out of tangled thoughts and patterns of behaviour that get in the way of the life you want to lead.
