I'm a psychologist, and I’m proud of the work I do – but I’m also a down-to-earth, approachable person. I’m a mum to a teenager, a toddler, and a lively Border Collie. I grew up in the beautiful North West countryside, and I love cooking for others and sharing good food. I have a quiet passion for science, enjoy podcasts and reading, and like to spend time outdoors – whether that's running or exploring trails on my mountain bike.

​

My career has been rooted in the NHS, where I’ve worked across mental health services with both adults and children. Currently, I work four days a week in a specialist NHS service supporting individuals affected by gambling-related harm. Much of my work over the years has focused on helping people understand and heal from the impact of trauma – using the mind, body, and relationships as powerful tools for recovery.

​

The feedback I most often receive is that people feel at ease and comfortable working with me. I believe that building a strong, trusting connection with your therapist is essential – no matter which approach we choose to use. I'm trained in a range of evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) and Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), and I tailor my approach to suit each individual’s needs.

​

I offer sessions on Fridays, either in person at my welcoming therapy room in the heart of Clitheroe, Lancashire, or online if that suits you better. My fee for self-funding clients is £120 per hour, and I also accept Bupa-insured clients.
