About me

​My experience and training has highlighted the importance of drawing upon an integrative approach in my work
​

​A Counselling Psychologist

I have 10 years of experience working therapeutically with individuals, couples and groups. As a Counselling Psychologist, my experience spans a broad range of settings including the NHS, private mental health organisations, university therapy services and forensic institutions.

I believe that the therapeutic relationship is key to understanding and unpacking your emotions and concerns. Working together we will unpack and consider how your issues started and through this understanding I will help you to accept and move on from your past and enable you to realise you have the power the choose how to live your life. As individuals, I understand we all have different needs and requirements and as such your therapy is tailored to your needs. This includes drawing upon a variety of different therapeutic approaches to inform my practice.

Alongside my private practice I work as a Psychologist for the NHS, specialising in relational issues. Previously, I have provided assessment, training and consultancy to staff working with vulnerable children and worked with those experiencing sexual and identity issues, substance dependency and those displaying antisocial behaviours.
 
I am registered with a number of private healthcare providers. Please contact me for further information.
