My Experience

I am a chartered health psychologist with experience across multiple NHS services including chronic pain, rheumatology, long covid and weight management. I specialise in EMDR therapy for trauma and helping individuals to adjust to long term conditions. I provide a compassionate, collaborative space where we can make sense of any difficulties you are facing and develop practical ways to move forwards.

I have a particular interest in medical trauma, birth trauma and trauma following accidents or injuries. I understand trauma can impact every aspect of your life, I will support you to process difficult experiences, reduce associated distress and move towards a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling.

I currently specialise in:

  • Anxiety (including health anxiety and general anxiety)
  • Adjustment to chronic health conditions
  • Loss and Grief
  • Stress
  • Trauma

I have worked with multiple chronic conditions including:

  • Autoimmune conditions
  • Cancer
  • Chronic Fatigue Syndrome / ME
  • Chronic Pain
  • IBD/Crohn’s
  • PoTS

 

My Values

I aim to provide a safe and compassionate space where we can explore your difficulties and together we can work towards unhooking from thoughts and behaviours that are holding you back. I adapt my sessions to suit each individual and to meet your unique needs.
