I provide warm, respectful and personally tailored therapy for adults, teenagers and their families, covering a wide range of emotional and behavioural difficulties. My training in a diverse range of psychological approaches allows me to offer therapy adapted to an individual’s needs. I believe that through empathy, determination and appropriately selected therapy, patients can achieve their goals. Engaging in professional development and pursuing feedback from patients and colleagues, ensures the care I deliver is at the highest standard possible and based on the latest evidence.
