I have worked with clients from all over the world, from many different cultures and backgrounds. I'm experienced in providing Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy), mindfulness, person-centred counselling, Compassion Focused Therapy and Gottman Method Couples Therapy.

I trained in clinical supervision at the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience Kings College London (2010-11), and I also completed an accredited course in clinical supervision in 2023 which gives eligibility to join the BPS Register of Applied Psychology Practice Clinical Supervisors (RAPPS).
