In addition to having been in private practice since 2020, I have extensive experience in other settings.

I’ve worked in local NHS eating disorder services as a therapist; Clinical Lead; and Principal Psychological Therapist, for the last thirteen years.

During this time, I’ve also trained therapists with the University of Exeter; and provided psychodynamic psychotherapy with the Bristol Complex Psychological Intervention NHS mental health service.

Prior to this, I worked as a therapist for a charity, seeing people with OCD; PTSD; depression; panic; health, and social anxiety.

My career began as a mental health nurse, working with in-patient, community, A&E, and early psychosis teams. My last position was as Clinical Nurse Consultant.
