Choosing a therapist is a personal decision. You may be wondering whether you'll feel comfortable talking to me, whether I'll understand what you're experiencing, or whether therapy can actually make a difference.

The relationship we build in therapy is an important part of the process and it is important we consider how we would work together.

My aim is to create a space where you feel able to speak honestly and openly, without feeling judged or pressured.

Therapy with me

My approach is compassionate, collaborative and informed by psychological theory and evidence-based therapeutic approaches.

I don't believe therapy should be about simply giving you advice or telling you what you should do.

Instead, we'll work together to understand what you're experiencing, where difficulties may have come from, and what you would like to be different.

Depending on your needs and goals, therapy may involve developing practical strategies, exploring thoughts and emotions, understanding patterns in relationships, processing difficult experiences, or developing a different relationship with yourself.

The work will be tailored to you.

Why Regen?

RegenPsychology is inspired by the idea of regeneration — the capacity to heal, adapt and grow.

This idea fits with my approach to therapy, I believe change is possible for us all and I am passionate about helping people to improve their lives.

I have experience of therapy working best when it is collaborative. My role is to provide expert and professional psychological advice to explore your experiences and identify how to help. Your role is to try your best to be open and brave by sharing with me. It really is about giving it a go and getting started.

You can expect me to:

• listen without judgement
• take your experiences seriously
• work collaboratively with you
• explain psychological ideas in a clear and accessible way
• adapt therapy to your individual needs
• respect your pace and boundaries
• be honest about what I can and cannot offer
• Most importantly, I want therapy to be a space where you feel heard and understood.

Professional registration

I am registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and am a Chartered Psychologist with the British Psychological Society (BPS). My undergraduate degree was at Durham University. 

The professional standards provide an important foundation for safe, ethical and accountable psychological practice.

There isn't a one-size-fits-all version of therapy. Your experiences, needs and goals are at the centre of our work. 

I welcome anyone who is curious about what therapy may offer them to get in touch. Send me an enquiry to book in a consultation and any questions you may have.
