About me

I am a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist accredited with the BABCP. I have worked within the NHS for 18 years, both as a mental health nurse and, more recently, in psychological therapies. The experience I have gained has given me the privilege of working with people from all walks of life, experiencing a wide range of mental health difficulties. Most importantly, it has allowed me to understand that everyone's internal struggles are unique. With this in mind, I seek to provide therapy that is both evidence-based and compassionate. My passion is create a safe space for people to explore your current problems, understand how they developed, and why they might persist. Collaboration is at the heart of my ethos and we will discuss a treatment plan that aligns with your goals.
