Approaches
My philosophy as a psychologist is to help my clients maximise their potential and have as fulfilling a life as possible.
The core principles guiding my work are acting in the best interests of my clients and respecting their needs and aspirations.
I strongly believe in offering my clients compassionate support and treating them with sensitivity and kindness.
My practice is holistic and draws from a range of established theoretical approaches. I carefully tailor each intervention to meet the needs and preferences of my clients.

I offer a range of short and long-term psychological interventions to individuals, couples and families. I also offer supervision to other clinicians and researchers and consultancy and research to organisations and communities.
