About Me
I am a clinical psychologist with 10 years of experience in clinical trials, qualitative methods, epidemiology and delivering psychological interventions within the National Health Service, private and voluntary sectors in the UK, Southern Asia, and Caribbean. I use an approach that aims to understand how and why difficulties may have arisen and what needs to change. My approach is empathic, non-judgemental and collaborative. I encourage clients to use their natural creativity to explore and connect with their experiences, bodies and nervous systems, perceptions and feelings to move towards greater self-awareness and freedom from feeling stuck, distressed or hopeless. I specialise in supporting those who are struggling with stress, depression, self-esteem, anxiety disorders, those who are in crisis including suicidal ideation and self-harming behaviours and parents with children with challenging behaviour.
I have gained a diverse range of clinical experience across several roles, and I’m particularly interested in the development and evaluation of accessible, acceptable and effective treatments for mental health difficulties.
I aim to positively change the culture around mental health by supporting committed individuals to reach their full potential.
