Compassionate Clinical Psychology in Barnet
“I have over 20 years clinical experience. Over this time, I’ve learnt every individual’s journey is unique, and I believe in offering a personalised, empathetic approach to therapy. Whether you’re seeking support for yourself, your child, or your family, I provide a safe and confidential space to explore challenges and work towards positive change. My goal is to help you develop resilience, understanding, and strategies to navigate life with greater confidence and well-being.
I am experienced in working with individuals with a variety of medical conditions, both chronic and life-threatening addressing psychological issues such as adjustment to diagnosis, adherence to treatment, behavioural difficulties, needle phobias, and emotional difficulties, as well as working with physical manifestations of psychological distress.
I believe that the therapeutic relationship is fundamental to the work that I do. I therefore provide a warm, friendly and safe space where children, adolescents, their families and adults can talk openly and honestly and without fear of judgment. I carry out thorough assessments which guide the formulation of the difficulties and direct the intervention.“
