Psychological Therapy
I have training and experience in a range of therapies and treatment modalities including: Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-based and Schema informed therapies, Mindfulness and child-focused parent work.
I believe therapy provides a time to reflect on thoughts, feelings and behaviours in a non-judgemental, confidential and safe space. Therapy can support individuals in opening up to new ways of thinking, feeling and behaving. It can help individuals make more flexible choices through a greater understanding of themselves and their relationships. And, ultimately, therapy can enable better ways of coping with difficult feelings in order to live a life that is meaningful and fulfilling.
●
My therapy with children and young people takes a systemic approach that often includes consultation with parents and/ or family. This allows consideration of the various perspectives surrounding an issue, and an understanding of how difficulties may have developed over time. In some cases, ongoing child-focused parent work may be offered to help parents more fully understand and attune to their child. This approach respects the important role parents hold and can enhance the benefits of individual therapy with a young person.
I Believe in Creating a Supportive and Safe Therapeutic Space Where Clients Feel Emotionally Held.

Clinical Supervision
●
I am dedicated to supervising and training clinicians across all stages of development. I offer clinical supervision to psychologists, clinical registrars and other healthcare professionals. Within an open and encouraging space, I aim to support professionals to:
develop an in- depth understanding of the relevant clinical issues;
find their own solutions within a supportive environment;
develop their skills in assessment, formulation and treatment for a range of clinical presentations, including consideration of new approaches and treatment directions, and
reflect on their own clinical practice and develop their own professional identity.
