I offer flexible office hours to accommodate 9-5 or shift work.

I am a highly qualified and experienced psychotherapist with recognised clinical expertise in the treatment and assessment of personality disorder, a range of mental health problems (including: depression, anxiety and psychosis), offending behaviour and addiction.  

Over the last 20 years, I have provided key psychological interventions to achieve the sustainable rehabilitation and recovery for clients with complex and enduring mental health problems. I specialise in the treatment of addiction, suicide and self-injury, and complex and challenging diagnoses, for example: Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder (Borderline Type).  In addition, I have provided specialist clinical services, training and consultancy to several key national organisations, including: MIND, Nominet Trust, The Mental Health Foundation, The Paul Hamlyn Foundation, Comic Relief and Bright, as well as many independent mental health providers.

I am highly adept in the application of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Integrative Psychotherapy, Psychosocial Interventions (PSI), Schema-Focused Therapy (SFT), and CBT-based therapies. I am also an author and originator of several treatment programmes and interventions for a range of diagnoses, addictions and offence-related behaviours.

Specialist Psychotherapy for Complex Problems & Transformative Recovery

Over the past two decades, I have guided people through some of life鈥檚 most daunting territory 鈥� from the grip of addiction or self-harm to the isolation of complex personality disorders, severe anxiety, depression and psychosis. My practice combines rigorous clinical expertise with a steady, compassionate presence, offering evidence-based therapies that are tailored to your goals, pace, and story.

What to Expect:

Tailored, evidence-based care 鈥� I integrate Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Schema-Focused Therapy, CBT-informed interventions, Psychosocial Interventions and broader Integrative Psychotherapy to meet your unique needs.

Collaborative Assessment and Planning 鈥� Our first two meetings help build a thorough understanding of your current situation and your desired future goals. Together, we agree on clear treatment aims and measurable milestones, so you always know where we鈥檙e heading.

Safety & respect at the core 鈥� Whether online or in my discreet, accessible consulting rooms, you will find a confidential space that is trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirmative and welcoming of all cultures and identities.

Skills for life, not just symptom relief 鈥� Each session equips you with practical strategies to practise between appointments, helping you build emotional regulation, resilience and balanced relationships long after therapy ends.

Outcome-focused progress reviews 鈥� We review regularly using recognised clinical measures and, crucially, your lived experience of change, ensuring therapy remains responsive and effective.

Your initial consultation is a compassionate, collaborative way to begin psychotherapy. This 30-minute session is offered at no charge, allowing you to explore whether we鈥檙e a good fit without financial pressure.

What鈥檚 involved:

Collaborative Assessment and Informed Consent 鈥� We鈥檒l explore your current situation, history, and goals. I use structured screening tools (e.g., GAD-7, PHQ-9, and, if relevant, a personality assessment) to deepen my understanding, while ensuring everything is explained clearly and transparently. You鈥檒l receive a written therapy contract that covers confidentiality, fees, cancellation policy, and boundaries, which is aligned with the 网爆门鈥檚 contracting standards.

Session experience 鈥� Rather than a 鈥渙ne-size-fits-all鈥� intake, this session is a space for you to share your story, ask any questions, and experience my style鈥攜our comfort and understanding come first. You鈥檒l discover how I integrate DBT, Schema Therapy, Psychosocial Interventions, CBT-informed techniques, and integrative principles.

Goal鈥憇etting & structure 鈥� Together we'll begin shaping a plan: what you want to achieve, how often we鈥檒l meet, and whether short鈥憈erm or longer鈥憈erm work suits best. We'll also review the structure of future sessions, including how we鈥檒l track your progress and adapt as needed.

What you鈥檒l leave with:

A clear sense of my therapeutic approach and whether it feels like a good fit.

An agreed鈥憉pon framework for working together, including session frequency, tools and strategies to focus on, and next steps.

A treatment plan that gives you confidence in a clear path for your therapy

There鈥檚 no obligation to continue鈥攊f this first session doesn鈥檛 feel right, you鈥檙e free to pause, seek other support, or take time to reflect. I鈥檓 also happy to suggest alternative pathways or referrals if that would better meet your needs.
