About the Therapist
I am a Chartered Consultant Clinical Psychologist with many years of experience working across
private, corporate, and NHS mental health services. I have been practising as a Clinical
Psychologist since 2012 and provide compassionate, ethical, and evidence-based psychological
care for adults, adolescents, and older adults. My work is grounded in the bio-psycho-social
model, meaning I consider not only symptoms, but also personal history, lifestyle,
relationships, and emotional wellbeing when supporting clients.

What to Expect
Sessions are collaborative, thoughtful, and tailored to your needs, pace, and goals. I use
evidence-based approaches to help clients understand difficulties more clearly, build coping
skills, and move towards meaningful change. Whether you are facing a specific mental health
concern or going through a difficult life period, I aim to offer a safe, supportive, and
non-judgemental therapeutic space.
