I am a fully accredited CBT and EMDR Practitioner with over 15 years of experience in the mental health field. My career spans diverse settings, including NHS Talking Therapies,

forensic settings, drug and alcohol services, and the private sector. In the NHS, I not only provided individual therapy but also developed and facilitated psychoeducational groups

informed by Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). These experiences shaped my ability to deliver tailored, evidence-based

interventions designed to empower clients and foster lasting change.

​

My expertise lies in treating:

• Anxiety-related challenges

• Trauma (developmental, complex, relational, and single-event)

• Addiction issues

• Relationship difficulties

. 

I draw on a range of approaches to ensure therapy is personalised to each client’s unique

needs and goals:

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)

• Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR)

• Schema Therapy

• Existential Therapy

• Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)

• Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT)

• Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT)

• Psychodynamic Theory

​

My practice is rooted in a compassionate, collaborative approach aimed at helping clients overcome challenges, feel empowered, and take meaningful steps toward living more

fulfilled lives.
