I am a registered psychologist with a history of working in mental health care. I bring a psychodynamic perspective to my work with both adults and adolescents (12+). I provide both short and longer-term therapy which is guided by psychoanalytic ideas. I am interested in helping individuals to enable long term personal change and to become more present in their lives.
I have experience working with individuals who seek help for a range of psychological difficulties, including:- depression, anxiety, stress, grief and loss, relationship difficulties and life transitions. Through working with individuals who have experienced difficult traumatic events in both childhood and adulthood I have become particularly interested in Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and attachment difficulties.
I have experience working from a variety of therapeutic modalities including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness-based approaches.
