Psychological Therapy, Assessment & Clinical Services
I provide evidence-based psychological assessment, therapy and consultation for adolescents and adults experiencing a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties.
As an HCPC-Registered Chartered Psychologist with over 12 years of clinical experience, I have worked across NHS, independent healthcare, secure forensic and private practice settings. I understand that every person's experiences are unique, which is why I tailor therapy to your individual needs rather than using a "one size fits all" approach.
Psychological Assessment
Psychological assessment provides an opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of the difficulties you are experiencing and helps guide effective treatment planning.
Assessments are individually tailored and may include clinical interviews, psychological formulation and evidence-based assessment measures where appropriate. Rather than focusing solely on symptoms, the assessment aims to understand the underlying factors contributing to your current difficulties and identify the most appropriate way forward.
Psychological assessment can be helpful for individuals experiencing trauma, anxiety, emotional difficulties, personality difficulties or more complex mental health presentations where greater clarity is needed before beginning therapy.
Psychological Therapy
Beginning therapy can feel like a significant step. My aim is to provide a collaborative, compassionate and confidential space where you can better understand your experiences, develop practical coping strategies and create meaningful, lasting psychological change.
Rather than relying on a single therapeutic model, I use an integrative approach, selecting the most appropriate evidence-based therapies to meet your individual needs, experiences and goals.
I use an integrative, evidence-based approach, tailoring therapy to your individual needs by drawing upon a range of psychological therapies, including Eye Movement Desensitisation Reprocessing (EMDR), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) and Prolonged Exposure Therapy informed approaches.
Areas of Clinical Practice
My clinical practice includes the assessment and treatment of adults experiencing a wide range of psychological difficulties. I regularly work with individuals experiencing trauma and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), complex trauma, anxiety disorders, panic attacks, health anxiety, social anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), depression and low mood, burnout and work-related stress, emotional regulation difficulties, low self-esteem, anger difficulties, sleep problems, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, personality difficulties, self-harm, suicidal thoughts and substance misuse.
I also have a particular clinical interest in supporting individuals through the psychological, behavioural and relational impact of GLP-1 treatment (such as Wegovy® and Mounjaro®) and significant weight loss. This may include difficulties relating to emotional eating, emotional coping, body image, identity, self-esteem, changing relationships, relationships with food, fear of weight regain and developing sustainable behavioural change.
If you are unsure whether therapy may be appropriate for your current difficulties, please feel free to get in touch. I would be happy to discuss whether my approach is likely to be the right fit for your needs.
Supervision
I offer supervision and consultation advice to other qualified psychologists as well as trainees. Please get in touch if this is something you are interested in.
Teaching & Guest Lecturing
I have provided teaching and training at various Universities in the field of Psychology and Forensic Mental Health such as Kingston University, University of Kent & University of Exeter
