I provide a safe, gentle, and empathic space for clients to explore and share their story while supporting a journey of discovery to improve mental health and wellbeing.

Clinical Psychologist Psychologists

I am experienced in working with complex psychological difficulties. I provide clients with a space where they can feel safe and can work in ways that they do not need to share sensitive details of their lives if they do not wish to do so.

Helping people make the changes they need to live rich, meaningful lives is incredibly rewarding. I believe in evidence-based practice and that psychologists should only utilise methods and treatments that are solidly based on science.
