About me

I am a HCPC registered Clinical Psychologist, who qualified from Oxford University. I am also trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (BABCP Accredited), Behavioural Couples Therapy (PgCert), Systemic Therapy, Systemic Family Therapy (Level 2 Accredited), Schema Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy, Dialectical Behavioural Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Psychodynamic Therapy, etc. My therapeutic approach involves engaging in evidence-based practice that is person-centred and flexible to meet your needs and achieve your goals. This involves taking into consideration your age, gender, ethnicity, cultural background, religious beliefs, and all other parts of your identity that make you, you. I currently work for the NHS as a Highly Specialist Clinical Psychologist in a specialist service for people experiencing a first episode of psychosis, complex trauma and mood disorders, but also enjoy working across organisations to support with increasing access to psychological therapies for people of all walks to life. Please see below a list of my specialisms. Specialisms: perinatal work, anxiety disorders (e.g., generalized anxiety, health anxiety, OCD, Social Anxiety, PTSD, trauma), psychosis and schizoaffective disorders, mood disorders (e.g., depression, low self-esteem, and bipolar disorder) and physical health difficulties.
