Background & Approach

My Background & Credentials

14+ Years of Clinical Experience
I've worked with hundreds of couples and individuals, across diverse backgrounds, relationship structures, and presenting issues.

​

NCPS Accredited Psychotherapist
I maintain the highest professional standards and engage in ongoing supervision and training.

​

Specialised Training in Couples Therapy
I've pursued advanced training specifically in relationship dynamics, attachment theory, and evidence-based couples interventions.

​

Trauma-Informed Practice
I understand how past experiences shape present relationships and work with sensitivity to trauma responses.

​

Insurance Accepted
Registered with Bupa, Aviva, WPA, and Vitality Health for clients with insurance coverage.

My Values

Honesty Over Niceness
I'll be compassionate, but I won't let you stay comfortable in patterns that aren't serving you. Real change requires real honesty.

​

Curiosity Over Judgment
I approach every couple with genuine curiosity about their unique story, free from assumptions about what "should" work.

​

Agency Over Passivity
Therapy isn't something I do to you - it's something we do together. You're not broken; you're capable. My job is to help you access that capability.

​

Long-Term Transformation Over Quick Fixes
I'm not interested in band-aid solutions. We're here to create lasting change, and that takes time, commitment, and courage.

​

Inclusivity & Respect
As a member of the LGBTQ+ community myself, I understand what it means to feel misunderstood. All identities, orientations, and relationship structures are welcome here.
