DR
Professional Doctorate in Counselling Psychology
Therapists
I am a counselling psychologist offering individual and couples therapy. I believe in treating everyone with respect and understanding each person's unique journey in life.
I am trained in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, but I have also had training in psychodynamic, systemic and solution-focused approaches through my doctoral training and professional development. I therefore have an integrative approach to meet your individual needs. I am also acutely aware of the role of culture in shaping our understanding of emotional issues and ways of seeking help.
I am licensed in the UK with 20 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, depression, managing emotions, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, & parenting issues. I worked for the NHS in many roles, first as a mental health worker and then as a qualified psychologist. have experience working with young people and adults presenting with a variety of difficulties whether acute or long standing. I am an expert assessor of risk in domestic abuse cases (DVACT PAI), and I also carry out psychological and cognitive assessments. My approach is integrative, using mainly cognitive behavioural therapy but also psychodynamic and systemic ideas to meet the unique needs o f each client. I am also mindful of cultural issues and my doctoral thesis was focused on the interplay between culture and mental health/well-being. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Therapy is a journey and a process, unique to each person. Therefore, I will tailor our dialogue and therapeutic plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
