Special interest areas

I have experience working with people suffering from addiction (specifically alcohol, drugs, gaming and sex) and co-morbid mental health issues including depression, trauma, attachment issues, anxiety disorders, personality and psychotic disorders. Furthermore, I have particular interest in working with anxiety disorders (mainly GAD and social phobia) and ADHD. I also work with couples and families on relational, attachment and addiction issues.

Personal Statement

I have experience of working within a variety of settings and client groups and a broad experience working with addictions, anxiety, family issues, mood and neurodegenerative disorders. Currently, I work in a rehabilitation facility supporting those struggling with issues pertaining to addiction and co-occurring mood and personality disorders.

Having experience in psychology and psychotherapy for over a decade, I understand how difficult it might be to open up and explore any issues interfering with your everyday life with a stranger. I therefore offer an initial free consultation where we can discuss what would best work for you and how we can make sure you gain as much as possible from therapy.
