My approach
Personalised Care for Young People
I offer a calm and supportive space where young people can talk openly about what they’re going through. I take time to understand their emotions, relationships, school life, and strengths so that care feels personal and manageable. My goal is to help each young person feel safer, more grounded, and more confident in themselves.
Eating Disorders
My work in a national and specialist eating disorders service has helped me to understand the pressures young people face around food, body image, and control. I treat anorexia, binge eating disorder and Bulimia. I focus on steady, compassionate support that involves families and helps young people rebuild trust in their bodies.
OCD, BDD and related disorders
Through my work in a national and specialist service, I have supported young people struggling with obsessive thoughts and body image concerns. I take a calm and non-judgemental approach, helping them understand their experiences and develop safer, more manageable ways to cope.
Supporting Complex Mental Health Needs and deliberate self harm
My experience leading an Early Intervention in Psychosis pathway and working in adolescent inpatient care has helped me to assess and support young people with complex or emerging symptoms. I explain things clearly and involve families so everyone understands the next steps. I also have experience of working with young people who struggle with self harm thoughts or engage in acts of deliberate self harm.
Skills-Based and Supportive Approaches
I draw on my experience in providing different approaches to supporting young people including Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills to help young people manage distress and intense emotions. I also work closely with families and schools to make sure support feels consistent and meaningful.
