Psychology
I am an experienced clinical psychologist, with comprehensive experience weight management, chronic disease and pain management.
About Me
I am a dedicated Clinical Psychologist who loves meeting new clients who have their own story and journey. I feel honoured when a client allows me to walk some of that journey with them. I have 15 years clinical experience working with clients with a range of presentations. I have a particular interest in chronic pain and obesity management and have been working in both these areas in the public sector for over 10 years.I’m a working mum with two beautiful young children so I understand how hectic life can be. It's hard to find any time for ourselves but it is important. I strive to be flexible for my clients and want to help you make the most of the therapeutic sessions. I am so looking forward to working with
you.

My Approach
There are a few different therapeutic approaches that Clinical Psychologists use. I mainly work within the framework of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Of course, if this approach is not appropriate for you I also draw on other approaches such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Schema Therapy. Psychological treatment should be individualised and collaborative. I want to listen and work with you.I work with a range of clients presenting with a range of issues including:
- Depression, low mood, low motivation
- Anxiety, stress, feeling overwhelmed.
- Chronic Pain Management
- Obesity Management
- Adjustment to Chronic conditions
- Self-esteem and lack of self-care
