I am a BABCP accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist with experience of supporting children, young people, and their families.  

My areas of expertise include:  

• Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)  

• Depression  

• Specific Phobias including Emetophobia and Agoraphobia 

• Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD)  

• Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)  

• Social Anxiety  

• Separation Anxiety  

• Body Dysmorphia Disorder (BDD)  

• Sleep Difficulties  

• Emotion Regulation  

 

I began my career in mental health working with adults in the community and later in an IAPT service, providing therapeutic intervention to support a range of difficulties including Depression and Anxiety.  I later transitioned to a role in CAMHS so I could follow my passion for working directly with children and young people to helping them thrive. I trained as a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist at Kings Collage London and since worked as a Senior Clinician in an NHS service.  

 

My roles have given me experience in working closely with schools on how best to support young people, support for families with how to navigate difficulties, and 1:1 work with individuals ranging from age 6 to young adults. I am experienced with working with individuals with diagnosed or suspected Neurodiversity and would work with you to adapt the therapeutic support to meet your needs.  

 

The sessions I offer can be 1:1 with a young person, just with parents/ carers, or can be joint. This is something we can all agree on and can be adapted as needed to suit each individual’s personal circumstance. My aim is to provide a safe and confidential space where meaningful connect and progress is made.  

 

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy with me is goal-focused, so we would start by agreeing on aims that we can work towards throughout our sessions. This way we can review progress and ensure that we are working towards goals that are important to you.
