Approach

My approach is client-focused, collaborative and compassionate. I take a holistic and evidence-based view of wellbeing, drawing on a range of psychological tools to tailor every session to you. Depending on your goals, we might draw from:

• Motivational Interviewing (MI) to clarify your goals and strengthen motivation.

• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to understand your thoughts, feelings and behaviours.

• CBT for Insomnia (CBT-I) to build healthier sleep patterns.

• Graded Exposure to gradually face fears and reduce their power.

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to accept difficult thoughts and feelings, be present in the moment and move forward with your values.

There are many paths to better physical and mental health, we’ll work together to find those that fit your life best.

Background

I’ve delivered hundreds of hours of coaching and mentoring sessions across diverse sectors — from mental health, tech to education.

I’m passionate about the intersection of mental and physical health. I have a Master’s in Psychology (Mental Health) (GMBPsS), a Bachelor’s in Cognitive Science, a Bachelor’s in Computer Science and I’m undertaking an accredited Doctorate in Health Psychology. I’m a strong believer in the power of community and am an avid volunteer. Physical activity is a core part of my life and I’m a certified Scottish Athletics Run Leader. I love the peace I find on long trail runs in nature.

My clients come from a wide range of ethnic, religious and socio-economic backgrounds. I provide inclusive, non-judgemental LGBTQIA+ friendly coaching.

Limitations

If you are struggling with a mental health condition, it is important that you seek advice from your GP or local mental health care professional. In an emergency call 999 (or your local emergency number if you are outside the UK).
