I am a senior BABCP accredited CBT therapist and supervisor. I have over 16 years’ experience working in the NHS, treating patients with moderate to severe mental health problems. I am passionate about providing good quality care to all people who are struggling with anxiety, panic, low mood and trauma.

I am a highly trained and experienced therapist with an expertise and specialism in OCD. I have recently been involved in a research project run in collaboration with the Clinical Neuroscience Institute (BCNI) Cambridge University. I gained extensive experience working alongside leading clinical and academic experts in anxiety and Obsessive Compulsive Related Disorders. I have worked with clients whose rates of recovery are excellent using techniques and strategies gained from working with such specialist teams.

I have worked with a range of clients who present with OCD in various guises, from mild to severe. OCD can present itself in ways that can completely clash with people’s values and be extremely debilitating. I would help you make sense of this and work towards removing the symptoms. I have found that many individuals aren’t aware that the issues they have are related to OCD, which can leave them feeling hopeless, frustrated, anxious and even depressed.

I am also trained, have vast experience and am very passionate about working with people who have psychosis. I am trained in CBT for psychosis (CBTp) which is associated with reducing the distressing symptoms of psychosis and improving the functioning of individuals. In addition, I have seen how CBTp can prevent and delay the transition into developing full psychosis.

I am trained in trauma focused therapy, EMDR and NET- Narrative Exposure therapy, CBT for psychosis, Family intervention
