My Background

I am a well-respected and highly-experienced chartered counselling psychologist based in Camberley, Surrey, also working remotely. I specialise in binge-eating disorder, anxiety, panic attacks, PTSD and trauma as well as relationship issues including the relationship with the self. I am an independent private practitioner. I previously worked for the NHS.

I have various qualifications that reflect the expertise and knowledge I display in my day-to-day practise. I have an MSc in counselling psychology and post-masters’ diploma from City University, London and hold a BSc in Psychology from Plymouth University.

I have completed the National Centre of Eating Disorders Diploma and a certificate in post-traumatic stress from the Berkshire Trauma Service.

I also work as a clinical supervisor and tutor and have spoken at several conferences. I am sought-after for my expert opinion and advice on a regular basis in the media, including being featured an expert in Sky TV’s Size Zero documentary.

Additionally, I have worked as a counselling and psychological support volunteer for Kingston Women’s Centre, a voluntary Thrive Mentor at the University of Reading and a member of the Ethical Panel at the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society.
