About Me
I am a Chartered Counselling Psychologist providing psychological therapy for individuals with a wide range of difficulties. The Professional Doctorate in Counselling Psychology has equipped me with a rigorous training in clinical practice, as well as professional research skills at doctoral level, enabling
me to become an effective and competent Practitioner Psychologist.
I strongly believe that we are all individuals who respond to difficulties in life very differently, therefore treatment is specifically tailored to meet the needs of the individual.
Please contact the Customer Success Team if you plan on using private medical insurance to cover your appointment(s) costs.
