About me and my therapy practice
My career began in addiction services, where I developed extensive expertise in alcohol misuse, substance dependency, gambling and associated psychological difficulties. I hold a Master's Degree in Addiction Studies and have supported people throughout all stages of recovery, from recognising problematic patterns to maintaining long-term change.
Over the past seven years I have specialised in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), achieving full accreditation in both approaches. I am triple accredited as an Accredited CBT Therapist with BABCP, an Accredited Practitioner with the EMDR Association UK, and an Accredited Counsellor with BACP.
I offer a collaborative, compassionate and evidence-based approach tailored to your individual needs. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, panic, OCD, low self-esteem, health anxiety and stress, while EMDR is particularly effective for trauma, PTSD, childhood experiences, grief and other distressing life events. My background in addiction provides additional understanding when working with substance use, compulsive behaviours and trauma-related difficulties.
Clients often describe me as warm, approachable and non-judgemental. I aim to provide a safe space where you can explore difficulties, develop resilience and achieve your therapeutic goals.
All sessions are provided online via Google Meet.
