Registered Nurse - Mental Health NMC

BABCP Accredited CBT Practitioner

EMDR UK Trained

CPT Provider

I achieve excellent recovery rates for my clients because I strongly believe that therapy is individual to that person, working initially on a trusting and strong therapeutic relationship.

My approach to psychotherapy is collaborative and flexible, this means that we would take the time to work together through your past experiences in a compassionate way, we will look together at the skills to help you overcome problems and make positive, lasting change.

My Experience

With over 10 years’ experience in working in a mental health setting, I am a passionate cognitive behaviour therapist and mental health nurse that has worked with a variety of mental health problems. I share in the Fortitude values and goals in delivering effective, evidence-based healthcare. I have worked in the Armed Forces and Veteran Services, my background and experience is treating service personnel (ages 16+) suffering from common mental health problems, I have vast experience treating PTSD and other complex presentations.

It can be daunting to ask for help but is often this first step that leads you on the path to feeling better. The therapeutic approach I offer is none judgemental, compassionate and collaborative. We'll work towards your own goals together, at your own pace.
