About me

I am an experienced Psychologist and specialise in working with trauma and am an Accredited EMDR Europe (Trauma) Consultant. I offer Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy. I am also a qualified Gestalt psychotherapist. I use a Feedback Informed Treatment method called "My Outcomes" which asks for feedback from each person every session in order to tailor the therapy to each individual. This, together with regular measures of each person's level of functioning, also enables me to measure my outcomes objectively and to improve my effectiveness as a clinician. I work with individuals (aged 18+). I have 19 years post-qualification experience working in the NHS and in Independent Practice. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is central to achieving positive outcomes in psychotherapy and my practice is evidence based and tailored to the needs of each person. I am an accredited EMDR Consultant and CBT Supervisor and am on the British Psychological Society Register of Applied Psychological Practice Supervisors. I offer clinical supervision to qualified and trainee psychologists, psychotherapists and other professionals.
