About Me
I am a qualified Cognitive Behavioural Therapist, Play Therapist and Mental Health Nurse. I have a wealth of experience working with children, adolescents, families and adults. I have worked in a variety of mental health settings within the NHS in therapist roles. These included child and adolescent mental health teams, and several specialist eating disorders services. I specialise in treating eating disorders, depression, anxiety, emotional and behavioural problems.

In addition to CBT, I am able to provide a wide range of therapies to children and families including play therapy, motivational enhancement therapy, mindfulness and guided self-help. I have a flexible approach to therapeutic work, which is creative and sensitive to the differing needs of individuals and families.
