About Me
I am a Clinical Psychologist with several years of experience supporting adults experiencing a range of mental health difficulties. Alongside my private practice, I continue to work within an NHS perinatal mental health service as a Senior Clinical Psychologist.
My approach is warm, compassionate, and trauma-informed. I place strong importance on the therapeutic relationship and aim to create a space that feels safe, supportive, and non-judgemental. Together, we can explore your experiences and work towards personal goals and meaningful change.
Who I Support
Adults

Anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, low self-esteem, self-criticism, and difficulties with emotional regulation
Areas of clinical interest
Perinatal mental health. I have experience working with perinatal depression and anxiety, tokophobia, maternal OCD, loss and bereavement, birth trauma, difficulties in bonding with baby and the transition to parenthood.
How I Work
I tailor my approach to each client’s individual needs, drawing on a range of evidence-based approaches including Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR).
