I am an experienced coach and final year trainee health psychologist, with specialist training in behaviour change, psychological interventions and trauma-informed practice. I bring a warm, reflective, and evidence-based approach to my work, grounded in a strong understanding of wellbeing, behaviour, and the wider contexts that shape people’s lives.

My background spans work with both adolescents and adults. I have over twenty years’ experience supporting adolescents through key educational transitions, periods of heightened pressure such as exams, and more complex emotional or family circumstances. Alongside this, I support adults navigating significant periods of adjustment, including new health diagnoses and the transitions surrounding pregnancy and early parenthood.

Across this work, I am experienced in supporting people at times when routines, identity and expectations are shifting and when compassionate, psychologically informed support can make a meaningful difference.

I provide compassionate, non-judgemental support tailored to each individual’s needs and goals. My approach is collaborative and person-centred, helping clients explore their values, motivations, thoughts, feelings and behaviours and understand how these influence everyday life.

I draw on a range of evidence-based psychological approaches and frameworks, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Motivational Interviewing and cognitive-behavioural strategies, as well as models of behaviour change.

Whether you are navigating a period of adjustment, managing pressure or uncertainty, or seeking to build healthier routines and behaviours, I work with you to set meaningful, realistic goals and develop strategies that are achievable and lasting.

Working with both adults and teenagers, I can help with a range of issues including:

Adults and Teens: Living with a chronic health condition; adapting to a new diagnosis; pre-natal/post-partum adjustment; adjusting to transitions/significant life changes; managing stress, overwhelm or burnout; building healthier habits; health anxiety; bereavement.

 Teen specific: Managing stress or pressure related to school or exams; low confidence or self-esteem; transitions (primary to secondary, GCSEs, sixth form, next steps); building healthy routines and coping strategies; managing the impact of a physical health condition alongside education; school attendance and engagement challenges.
