I am a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist, Clinical Supervisor, and Registered Mental Health Nurse. I integrate my skills to offer you a therapy experience that is highly adapted and unique to you. I have around 12 years of experience supporting adults, children, and adolescents with their mental health. I offer a space for you to be heard and understood, while also teaching you the life-long skills needed for psychological healing.

I specialise in working with deep-thinkers and neurodivergent people who are looking for a safe space to overcome chronic anxiety and reclaim their identity. Perhaps your life has become restricted by your mental health; you’re not able to do the things you love, or maybe you have felt this way for so long that you don’t even know who you are anymore. You’re “white-knuckling” life, doing the best you can to get through but still feeling wiped out at the end of the day. You’re questioning how much longer you can do this for.

Or maybe your life is not aligned with who you truly are or want to be. You’re doing things out of obligation or you’re doing things that feel familiar in the short term, but make you feel depleted, guilty and anxious in the long term. I want to help you break cycles so that you can take back control of your life.

Whatever your story may be, my aim is to support you towards a stronger sense of Self, away from outside expectations and limiting beliefs, so that you can live a life which is more aligned with your values. I want to help you feel more regulated and in touch with your intuition, so that you can make choices that feel right to you. I want to help you go out into the world with confidence knowing that you know who you are, equipped with the tools on how to manage when life gets tough.

My style is calm, friendly, nurturing, and validating. Psychotherapy is not only a career choice for me but my passion. I am committed to ongoing learning, reading and the development of new skills. I am an ADHDer so I am passionate about adapting therapy to meet the needs of neurodivergent individuals; working with your brain - not against it.

Human to human, I have been where you are. I have been stuck in anxious cycles, desperate to make a change but having no idea where to start. I know how frustrating and demoralising it can be, but you have the power to take control of your life. I want you to know that you are not alone and when you are ready, I will support you along the way.

My primary modality is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), which is an evidence based therapy for many mental health conditions, such as anxiety and depression. CBT identifies links between your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. CBT can also be used longitudinally, helping you to understand your early life experiences and how this impacts on the here and now. Working in this way helps to bring subconscious patterns into consciousness and empowers you to understand your current difficulties, who you truly are, and make changes in your life - should you wish to. I find that this approach is helpful for those who value guidance and structure within therapy, but also want to feel empowered to take control of their own lives. My nursing background allows me to work flexibly and bring in other elements to meet your needs. Therefore, there may be times where I integrate other modalities into our sessions such as Mind-Body medicine and Holistic techniques. This includes techniques such as somatic processing and nervous system regulation.

I offer 1:1 therapy via video-call with each session lasting for up to one hour. At the start, we will identify your goals for therapy. Throughout, I will create a space for you to be seen and understood while also equipping you with the tools to continue understanding and supporting yourself way beyond therapy. You are under no obligation to commit to a minimum or maximum number of sessions. Every person on earth is unique. This means that each individual’s journey through therapy will look different and I will tailor your therapy to suit your needs.

Still unsure if you’re ready to commit? No problem - I offer a free 15 minute telephone consultation where you get the opportunity to speak to me and ask any questions. Click “Book a Session” below.

My approach is best suited to young adults (age 18 - 35) however, due to the highly adapted nature of this therapy, it can be tailored to any age group. I have experience working with adults and young people (age 8+).

It is important that you are ready to commit to the process of therapy. The brain is incredibly clever and often resistant to change. Your brain’s job is to keep you safe and change does not always feel safe! Therapy can feel scary and challenging but that does not mean that therapy is not working - this is often a sign that it is! If you (or your child) have decided that you want to make a change, that’s where I can support you.

If you may find it helpful, I have included a comprehensive list of experiences I can support with.

Issues related to Identity, Low Self Esteem, Depression, Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Panic Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Illness Anxiety (some may know this as Health Anxiety), Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD), Chronic Pain.

As a neurodivergent therapist who has years of experience working with neurodivergent clients, I will work collaboratively with you to adapt therapy to suit your individual needs. As a therapist, it is my role to encourage you to challenge yourself. However, I am aware that this is a nuanced area and for some neurodivergent people, it may be that adjustments and extra support is needed systemically. I will not impose societal or neurotypical expectations upon you; I celebrate diversity and therapy will be based on what you choose to work on. It is important to me that I work in a strengths-led way that encourages you to work with your brain, not against it.

In therapy with me, we do not bypass the pain of your experiences. We do not ignore the systems in place that contributed to your pain. We acknowledge them and we honour them. You probably feel angry about how the world has treated you. Anger is welcome here. Once you allow yourself the space to feel the gravity of your experiences, you can move through them - at your pace.

So, if you’re searching for a Neurodivergent Therapist who really gets it - reach out and let’s discuss how we can work together.
