About me
I’m a Chartered Counselling Psychologist who works with adults aged 18 and over. I have many years of experience providing one-to-one psychological therapy and offer both short-term and longer-term support. Our work together can be more solution-focused or more explorative, depending on what feels most helpful for you. My aim is to offer a compassionate, non-judgemental, and safe space where you can feel heard and understood. I believe in working collaboratively to make sense of your experiences and challenges, while helping you find more helpful ways of coping and moving forward.

Who I Support
I often work with people experiencing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, or the effects of early life trauma. I also support clients dealing with work or university-related stress and life transitions. In addition, I have a particular interest in eating and body image-related issues, as well as the emotional challenges that can come with becoming a new parent.

How I Work
My approach draws on a range of evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), mindfulness, and psychodynamic approaches. I can also offer Cognitive Behavioural Therapy for Eating Disorders (CBT-E) and the FREED approach, which was developed specifically for young adults experiencing early-onset eating disorders.

Professional Background and Qualifications
Professional Doctorate in Counselling Psychology (DCounsPsy), University of East London
MSc in Psychology, University of East London
NHS mental health services, specialist charities, and a private mental health hospital in Central London
Specialist training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) including CBT for eating disorders, Compassion-Focused Therapy, and trauma-informed approaches

Beyond the Therapy Room
I love spending time with my family, doing yoga and Pilates to relax. In summer, I love being outdoors and escaping to the beach!
