“I am not in this world to live up to other people’s expectations, nor do I feel that the world must live up to mine.”

What I offer
I have 13 years experience within NHS, charity and private settings as a therapist, assessment clinician and supervisor. I am registered with the HCPC and all major health insurers and am a Chartered Counselling Psychologist, certified by the British Psychological Society. I adhere to best practise standards clinically and ethically, including CRB/DBS enhanced certification (ie criminal record bureau clearance), continuing professional development and ongoing training.
My way of working is collaborative, offering clients evidence-based techniques and the space to understand patterns of thought and behaviour. I will include clear advice where this is appropriate, suggesting how change can be achieved.
