I believe that we all have an innate capacity to grow and change, and that sometimes we need to explore our personal stories to get this moving again. As children we make decisions about ourselves based on our environment; sometimes these beliefs and decisions are unkind and can leave us feeling stuck, depressed or not "good enough". Therapy helps to update these beliefs, letting go of what isn't (and may never have been) ours to carry. I have worked extensively with depression, anxiety, trauma and abuse. I currently also practice as a group therapist in an addiction service. I am BACP & UKCP registered.

My work is concerned with understanding the person behind the diagnosis, appreciating your uniqueness, and fostering a relationship built on trust. Any diagnosis, while important for treatment, is merely a label that categorises a set of symptoms. It does not define your identity or capabilities. I will focus on your strengths, challenges, and aspirations. The medium to long-term commitment in therapy allows for a deeper understanding between us, it is a gradual process of exploration and discovery. This timeframe provides for a strong relationship, which research has shown to be a crucial factor in successful outcomes.

Most importantly, I work with people, not diagnoses or labels. I specialise in working with those with a history of trauma, whether that’s one off events such as a car crash, sexual assault or attack, or layers of trauma in the form of childhood neglect/abuse, a military/medical career or an abusive relationship. I try to help my patients overcome their ongoing reactions to this trauma, such as nightmares, flashbacks, intrusive memories, high levels of anxiety and poor sleep. I also work with people experiencing moral injury and survivors guilt. Additionally, those experiencing depression, anxiety, OCD and relationship issues.
