She is experienced in assessing and working with adults who are struggling with difficulties such as depression and anxiety, and has worked extensively with numerous other presentations including self-esteem, burnout, stress, physical health difficulties, emotion dysregulation and personality difficulties. Miranda specialises in working with individuals experiencing long term health conditions and in the management of persistent pain.
