I am an accredited member of the British Association of Cognitive and Behavioural Psychotherapists (BABCP) and the Health Care Professions Council ( HCPC). I have received additional training in Systemic Family work, Compassion Focused Therapy, EMDR and Long Term Health conditions. I have significant experience of working with young people and adults who are struggling with anxiety, depression, OCD, eating disorders, cancer and bereavement. I consider myself to be an integrative practitioner adopting a collaborative treatment approach being very much guided by a persons understanding of their difficulties. I have worked in the NHS, Local Authority and the Voluntary sector. She has also provided therapy in an Occupational Health Team.

I have for many years worked in Child and Adolescent mental health and until recently was the Clinical Lead of a community eating disorder service. I have also worked in an addiction treatment centre engaging in therapy with patients and their families. I currently work part time with people experiencing long term health conditions and a 16 + Eating Disorder Service as well as in a University Health Service. I also provide psychological consultation to Adoptive parents and Foster Carers as well as to professionals working within this area.

I have additional training and qualifications in supervision and provide this to both qualified and therapists in training.
