I am passionate in helping people to make sense of what has happened to them, who they are and become the person they would like to be.

I I have trained for many years to be a psychologist.  After gaining my psychology degree , I started my career working with, and supporting people with addictions and completed my Doctorate in Counselling Psychology in 2011. This was followed by completing a Post Graduate Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) in 2012.

I have worked in the NHS helping adults overcome mild to severe mental health problems in various settings and I have been working in private practice since 2013.

​I have also completed additional training in Mindfulness skills, Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) and I use all these approaches in my therapy.
