I am passionate about offering an integrative approach to therapy, drawing on strengths, values and creativity in order to offer therapy that feels accessible, culturally-sensitive and meets your individual needs. I am trained in a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches that allow me to work integratively including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Narrative Therapy and Compassion-Focused Therapy (CBT).

I am a Clinical Psychologist with over eight years of experience working in a variety of NHS services across both mental health and educational settings, alongside offering private therapy. I recognise the strength it takes to seek support, and aim to create a non-judgmental and compassionate therapeutic space to allow individuals to safely explore whatever challenge they might be facing and feel empowered to make meaningful change.

I have specialist experience in paediatric settings, supporting children, adolescents, and their families with the psychological impact of living with a long-term health condition including expertise in adjustment and identity, trauma, loss and bereavement, and behaviour that challenges. I also have extensive experience in supporting adults and children with anxiety (including OCD, Social Anxiety and Phobias), depression, burnout, sleep difficulties and low self-esteem. I hope to support individuals to recognise their existing skills and develop new ways of coping in order to cultivate emotional resilience and wellbeing.


I have over 10 years of experience working therapeutically across the NHS and private sectors. As a senior Clinical Psychologist, I am committed to creating a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental therapeutic space where individuals feel seen, heard, and supported.
At the heart of my clinical work is a dedication to promoting emotional well-being and resilience. I strive to be alongside individuals as they navigate life’s challenges, no matter how big or small. I hold the belief that hope can always be nurtured within the therapeutic process, empowering individuals to better understand themselves, overcome adversities and work towards meaningful change.   

I work with children, adolescents, parents, and adults from diverse backgrounds, with a strong emphasis on cultural sensitivity and non-discrimination. I specialise in guiding individuals through the emotional impact of physical health conditions, fertility challenges, loss, grief, and bereavement. I also have extensive experience in working with anxiety, trauma, depression, burnout, parenting, and relational difficulties. I have a particular interest in helping individuals navigate through pivotal life transitions, carefully addressing the social, relational, and emotional challenges which can emerge across the lifespan.  

I use an integrative therapeutic approach, tailoring all assessments and interventions to meet individual needs and goals, while remaining grounded in evidence-based practices. My work is informed by Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), Narrative Therapies, Attachment Theory, and Psychodynamic Principles. I also have advanced training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and adopt a trauma-informed approach to support individuals on their journey toward healing and growth. 


I am a clinical psychologist with over 15 years of experience, offering an individualized approach to therapy tailored to each person’s strengths and challenges. I believe that each person’s difficulties can be understood in the context of their unique experiences, including cultural and societal influences. My goal is to help individuals process their challenges and develop more effective ways of coping. With a background in working with children, young people, and adults, I support those facing a wide range of psychological, emotional, and relational difficulties. I have experience working with individuals across various life stages and challenges, including trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and emotional distress. I specialise in trauma-focused therapy, including EMDR, and work with survivors of sexual violence, domestic abuse, and traumatic loss. I also offer support for parents, particularly during the pre- and post-natal periods, as well as those dealing with fertility struggles, baby loss, and birth trauma. Additionally, I work with families navigating childhood challenges such as sleep, feeding, and behavioural difficulties, as well as those managing health conditions. 

In addition to my clinical work, I provide professional supervision and reflective practice to psychologists, NHS workers, charity sector staff, and legal professionals, supporting them in challenging environments to process emotional responses and maintain resilience. 

My approach combines evidence-based therapies, including Attachment Theory, Compassion-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, EMDR, Polyvagal theory and Narrative Therapy, to support lasting change. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their emotions, develop practical coping strategies, and make meaningful progress.

My approach combines evidence-based therapies, including Attachment Theory, Compassion-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, EMDR, Polyvagal theory and Narrative Therapy, to support lasting change. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their emotions, develop practical coping strategies, and make meaningful progress.
