I am a counselling psychologist and existential psychotherapist and lead the neurodiversity service at the Blue Door. I am also currently training as a Relational Life Therapist, an innovative approach to couples therapy 

Developing a collaborative relationship is at the centre of my approach, alongside fostering a space of acceptance and curiosity in which clients can explore their relationship to themselves, others and the world. People experience, learn and connect to the world in different ways, and I use a range of evidence-based approaches (including CBT and mindfulness) and varied therapeutic formats to best help clients flourish. 

I began my career managing specialist services for autistic adults, before moving to work for the NHS in primary and secondary mental health care. I have worked for over 18 years with neurodivergent individuals, couples and families. This has included setting up innovative post-diagnostic services and women’s groups. I am currently a university course director for autism and neurodiversity post-graduate programmes, as well as working with neurodivergent charities in the UK.
