About Me

I am a compassionate Clinical Psychologist with over 15 years' experience across NHS and private sectors. My diverse training, spanning dramatherapy and neuropsychology, allows me to adapt my approach. We might explore feelings through creative methods. Or we can work to understand how your mind processes challenges. This integrated perspective fosters clarity and resilience for those seeking a holistic path to well-being.

Approach

Sessions move between expressive, hands-on exercises and careful exploration of thinking patterns so you can experiment with new ways of coping and notice shifts as they happen. Based in Stockton-On-Tees and working in English, I keep the pace measured and collaborative, checking in about what feels useful and suggesting simple tasks to try between meetings. Therapy often involves mapping thoughts, emotions and physical sensations alongside short creative tasks to make sense of stuck places. People seeking practical clarity and gentle change tend to find this approach helpful.
