About Me
I’m a Clinical Psychologist with experience working alongside young people, adults, parents, and families experiencing a range of emotional, behavioural, and relational difficulties.

My practice is grounded in a systemic perspective, which means I am interested in the difficulties someone may be experiencing and in understanding them within the context of their relationships, family, community, and wider life experiences. I believe that people make sense when their experiences are understood in context, and that meaningful change often emerges through recognising and building upon existing strengths, resources, and sources of support.

I aim to create a therapeutic space that is warm, compassionate, curious, authentic, and non-judgemental, where people feel understood, connected to their strengths, and hopeful about the future. My role is to work alongside individuals, families, and wider networks as they make sense of challenges, explore new possibilities, and move towards the changes that matter most to them.

My Therapeutic Approach
My work is informed by an integrative and evidence-based approach, with systemic thinking at its core. I am interested in how relationships, life experiences, family stories, social contexts, and important systems influence the ways people understand themselves and respond to challenges.

Alongside systemic approaches, I draw primarily on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), adapting my work to the unique needs, strengths, values, and goals of each person or family. Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, I work collaboratively to develop an approach that feels meaningful, relevant, and achievable.

Clients often describe me as calm, warm, compassionate, curious, creative, and authentic. Together, we create space for new perspectives to emerge, reconnect with existing strengths and resources, and work towards meaningful and sustainable change.

A Little More About Me
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends and keeping active through running and sport. Music has always been an important part of my life, and I enjoy playing guitar and singing, particularly alongside my brothers, who are also musicians. I am a keen cook and take particular pride in making a good roast dinner. When I have the opportunity to slow down, you’ll often find me reading about history, watching sport, or planning my next run.

Next Steps
Seeking support can feel like a significant step. If you feel that my approach may be a good fit for you, your child, or your family, I’d be happy to arrange an initial conversation to explore what has brought you to seek support, consider what you hope might be different, and think together about how we might work together.
