I am a dedicated BABCP accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist with over a decade of experience working with common mental health difficulties in the NHS and in private practice.
Book a sessionMy approach as a therapist is deeply rooted in evidence-based practices honed over years of working with diverse populations across varied age groups. Throughout the past decade, I have supported individuals facing a wide range of challenges; from anxiety disorders and depression to trauma and stress-related disorders. In line with my values, I offer a compassionate and empowering approach to helping clients work towards their identified goals using practical strategies tailored to each of their unique needs. My areas of interest are trauma, PTSD and low self-esteem. I appreciate taking the first step towards accessing psychological support can be difficult. Therefore, I am very much committed to providing a safe, non-judgemental space where clients can explore their innermost thoughts and emotions freely to enable them to embark on a transformative journey towards mental wellness. This can only happen in a safe space. With a firm belief in the power of collaboration, I work hand-in-hand with my clients to develop personalised treatment plans that that unique, foster positive change and enhance self-awareness. As a CBT therapist, my ultimate goal is to empower my clients to challenge negative thought patterns, cultivate healthier coping mechanisms, change unhelpful behaviours and ultimately reclaim control over their lives. I have a special interest in the profound impact culture often has on mental health. I am especially interested in exploring how cultural values, traditions, and experiences shape our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. My approach as a CBT therapist is rooted in cultural sensitivity, recognising that each of my clients cultural background may play a crucial role in their mental health journey and when appropriate, how their cultural identities can be integrated into the healing process.
