About me and my therapy practice

I trained as an Integrative Psychotherapist at the Sherwood Institute of Psychotherapy, Nottingham, 

I use mental health assessments such as , PHQ9, GAD7, WAS, PCL5 to assess clients for suitability for Counselling and other modalities, and provide specialist psychological treatment based upon clearly accepted, evidence-based principles (N.I.C.E. guidelines for Depression), to work with common mental health problems, including mood and adjustment disorders and other issues.

I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches to create a safe, compassionate space for clients to explore emotional difficulties and develop healthier understandings of their experiences. 

I have extensive experience supporting diverse populations across NHS and forensic settings. 


Practice description

My practice blends modalities including, CBT, attachment-based work, and somatic strategies, tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual.
