About me

​

I am a down to earth individual who aims to explain things simply and succinctly. I am an open, honest, warm therapist who will always strive to remain curious so that I can help develop a share understanding of what is going on. I can also be direct in my approach if this is required.

 

I know life can be tough so I provide a safe space where you can share however you feel without any judgement, and if you do not know how you feel, we can work it out together as a team.   ​

​

Experience

​

I am an experienced Clinical Psychologist who specialises in working with children, adolescents and young adults. I completed my doctoral training at the University of Bath and since then I have been working in child and adolescent mental health services.

​

Approach 

​

I aim to work alongside the young person and their parent/s to ensure that therapy is a positive experience, delivered in a professional and supportive manner. The level of parental involvement will be discussed in the initial assessment session, but typically the younger the child, the more involved the parent is. 

​

I work digitally so all my sessions are completed online. 

​

Specialities 

​

I deliver therapy for a range of difficulties including:

​

• Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

• Generalised anxiety

• Worry

• Social anxiety

• Phobias

• Depression

• Low self-esteem

• Perfectionism

​

I have a Postgraduate Certificate in Supervision for Children and Young People's Improving Access to Psychological Treatments. I provide both individual and group supervision to CBT therapists and Clinical Psychologists. 

​

Standards 

​

I am passionate about providing high quality evidence based interventions approved by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) which is regulated by the Health and Care Professionals Council (HCPC).

​

I am accredited with the British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP) which is the only regulatory body for Cognitve Behaviour Therapy (CBT) in the UK.
