Individual Therapy

I am experienced in working alongside people who are transforming the way they experience themselves and navigate life, by working through the impacts of complex trauma and adversity. I can assist you in moving out of despair, addressing panic attacks, obsessions and compulsions, suicidal distress, self-harm, or navigating altered states and unshared beliefs.

My work is informed by the Power Threat Meaning Framework and recognises that much distress is driven by social contexts such as systemic racism, systemic homophobia, gender inequality and wealth inequality. Transforming how we see our problems can reveal a way forward.

I am a Clinical and Community Psychologist with 20 years experience of drawing on approaches such as Schema Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy to support recovery from severe emotional distress. I have founded Community Psychology Reclaimed to work with community organisations and collaborate with people who have lived experience of trauma recovery.

Even very long standing problems can be worked with, and it can be possible to achieve change even when things seem hopeless or stuck. I will work alongside you at a pace that feels safe, to explore what you have been carrying and find a way forward.
