Do please contact me for available slots

I offer a compassionate, confidential and non-judgemental space for individuals and couples.  Having worked with a therapeutic approach for over 25 years, I have wealth of experience and have worked with a large variety of clients.  I have gained significant skills in various modalities such as CBT, CFT, MT, DBT and MI.  My approach is person-centred and will be led by what your hopes for therapy are.

I have two main specialities: 

Eating disorders - a field that I have worked in for many years, dealing with all presentations including complex comorbidities.  I understand the many layers that an eating disorder has and how working with the presenting issues alongside the root causes can lead to better outcomes.  I am also a HCPC registered dietitian so can support the dietary aspects hand-in-hand with the therapeutic input.

Couple/relationship and psychosexual therapy - I am registered with the College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists and offer support across the spectrum of relationship and psychosexual needs.  

I am also skilled in supporting with issues around trauma, body image, cultural and religious elements of therapy.

I currently work online only, with sessions being 50 minutes long.  Couples/group sessions may extend to an hour.  All sessions will be covered by a clear contract detailing all aspects of the therapeutic relationship.

I am happy to offer a short, 10 minute introduction session online prior to the first session, which is an assessment.  The assessment will cover a comprehensive history and look at the present issues.  There are several points during therapy where we will 'assess' how sessions are feeling to you, to ensure that you are getting the support you need.
