About me and my therapy practice
I offer a specialist clinic for people struggling with their relationship with food and body image. You may have been diagnosed with an eating disorder, suffering from anxiety or depression and using food as a coping mechanism or just instinctively know that your relationship with food is unhealthy and have a wish to explore this. I look beyond the symptoms and focus on a future beyond destructive behaviours, supporting people to move towards their dreams and aspirations without the burden of intrusive thoughts about food and body image.
I have been working with eating disorders for the past 15 years. I trained with the National Centre for Eating Disorders and combine evidence-based treatment with mindfulness practice and other holistic inputs. I am passionate about empowering people to gain strength, wellness, and independence and most of all freedom from their intrusive eating behaviours.
I am a Psychotherapist, Supervisor and Trainer with further expertise in CBT, breathwork, addiction, perinatal psychology and birth trauma. I also have a keen interest in running and polar adventure, how your birth experience can affect your psychological health and how community can restore wellbeing. I believe there is no better place than Cornwall to provide a truly holistic approach to recovery, including all elements of lifestyle with so many opportunities to explore wellbeing and rebuild our personal, social and communal lives.
