I am a senior clinical psychologist currently practising in the NHS across cancer and palliative care services. I have worked in the NHS for over 10 years in different roles across a breadth of physical and mental health settings.
I specialise in helping adults navigate complex trauma - from processing early developmental trauma and relational experiences to coping with health-related trauma and physical illness. My practice provides a compassionate evidence-based space to help you process profound life adjustments, overcome emotional distress, and rebuild security and resilience in the face of physical or emotional adversity.
Due to the eclectic nature of my training and clinical experience, I draw flexibly from a wide range of evidence-based therapies, including psychodynamic therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), mentalisation-based treatment (MBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
