Personal Statement

I have worked in the NHS in hospitals, in a GP practice and CAMHS. A background as a teacher in secondary schools has given me a better insight into my work with children and adolescents.

My training in the Psychodynamic, Person-Centered and CBT models help me to offer sessions which are a space where you can gain understanding about your situation, support in finding new ways of dealing with difficulties and an empathic approach to help you develop resilience and flexibility.
