Location: London

I am an integrative cognitive behavioural therapist and mental health researcher. My training has been in integrative approaches, including REBT, ACT, Cognitive Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. I specialise in helping people overcome problems with anxiety, low mood, stress and burnout, as well as low self-esteem and self-criticism. I often work with people who are balancing busy professional and personal lives. Prior to retraining, I spent ten years working in industry, within financial services, in the City of London and New York City. My PhD - which I have recently completed - has been in the area of employee mental wellbeing in corporate environments. I designed and delivered a coaching programme for workers based on mindfulness and cognitive behavioural methods.
