I am a warm, down-to-earth, and compassionate Clinical Psychologist with over 25 years of experience helping people navigate life’s challenges and rediscover a sense of wellbeing and purpose. I offer psychological therapy to adults (16+) experiencing a wide range of emotional and mental health difficulties, including:

  • Anxiety disorders – such as Generalised Anxiety, Health Anxiety, OCD, Panic, Social Anxiety, and Phobias
  • Mood disorders – including Depression and Bipolar Disorder
  • Neurodevelopmental conditions – ADHD and Autism Spectrum Conditions (ASC)
  • Perinatal and postnatal mental health concerns
  • Psychosis and voice hearing experiences
  • Trauma and post-traumatic stress
  • Relationship challenges, self-esteem, and identity issues
  • Sleep difficulties, stress, worry, and burnout
  • Substance use and coping behaviours

Therapeutic Approaches

My work integrates a range of evidence-based therapies tailored to each person’s individual needs and goals. These include:

  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
  • Transdiagnostic CBT
  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
  • Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT)
  • Social Recovery Therapy
  • Schema Focussed Therapy
  • Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) – a powerful, evidence-based approach for healing trauma and distressing life experiences

My Approach

Therapy with me is collaborative, compassionate, and grounded in genuine curiosity about your life and experiences. Together, we’ll make sense of the patterns that may be keeping you stuck — exploring how your thoughts, emotions and behaviours interact, and identifying new ways of understanding and responding to life’s challenges.

I aim to create a safe, non-judgemental space where we can build on your strengths, foster self-understanding, and develop lasting change. My goal is not just symptom relief, but to help you live with greater authenticity, confidence, and emotional freedom.

Experience

As a HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist, I have extensive NHS and international experience across a variety of mental health services in the UK and Australia. My background spans direct clinical work, supervision, teaching, management, service development and research.

Alongside my clinical practice, I am passionate about reducing stigma, promoting mental health awareness, and supporting innovation in psychological care. I have contributed to NHS research, co-developing, and testing new therapies through randomised controlled trials with leading clinicians I also offer organisational, educational and media consultancy to help shape public understanding of mental health.
