There are many human experiences in life that can make us feel like we are disconnected from our authentic Self. 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 create a safe, non-judgemental space for you to overcome distress and explore who you truly are. 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 dedicated to keeping my knowledge and skills up to date so that my clients can access the best possible service I can provide.

My primary modality is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), which is an evidence based therapy for common mental health conditions, such as anxiety and depression. CBT aims to identify 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 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. There may be times where I integrate other modalities into our sessions, as I am also inspired by Mind-Body and Holistic 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.

The process is as follows:

• Enquire via website form.

• I will respond via email and book you in for a consultation appointment which is an assessment of your needs. I offer this at a discounted rate and there is no obligation for you to commit to further sessions.

• If you agree to go ahead with therapy, we will agree on a day and time that works for us both and I will send you a personal video-call link for our sessions.

Still unsure if you’re ready to commit? No problem - I offer a free 10 minute telephone consultation where you get the opportunity to speak to me and ask any questions. Enquire via the form to book.

I work with anyone who is ready to commit to the therapy journey. 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 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. Please note that I am not an expert on neurodiversity but it is an area I am passionate about. I am committed to ongoing learning from both professionals and those with lived experience. I am always happy to discuss my ethos in more detail, so please do not hesitate to ask.
