Some clients check with their insurer to see if sessions with a Clinical Psychologist are covered. I can provide invoices if you need them.

You can see the types of difficulties I help with here.

You can read about the therapies I use here.

Clients get the most from therapy when they are:

• Actively engaged during the sessions

• Reflecting between sessions

• Willing to explore experiences

Many people feel this way.

In our first sessions, we will work together to understand your difficulties and notice any patterns.

Sometimes therapy can feel difficult, especially when working through distressing experiences or patterns.

This is a normal part of the process and may show that meaningful change is happening.

We will regularly review your progress and adjust the pace and focus to make sure the work stays manageable and supportive.

Yes, you can stop therapy whenever you want. It's always your choice.

Ideally, we'll talk about ending therapy together, so you have a chance for proper closure.

Yes. I keep your information confidential, following professional and legal standards.

There are limits if there is a serious risk of harm to you or others, or if there are safeguarding concerns.

Before we start full sessions, you'll get a therapy agreement that explains confidentiality, data handling, and how we'll work together.

Confidentiality also depends on your own home environment.

It's best to have a private, quiet space for your sessions.

To make sure my work is safe and effective, I take part in regular clinical supervision.

This means I may sometimes discuss parts of sessions with a supervisor, but I never share any identifying information.

This is standard practice for Clinical Psychologists and helps keep the work safe and high-quality.

No. I don't routinely share information about your sessions with your GP or NHS services.

This is an independent, private service, and your attendance and session details do not form part of your NHS record.

Information would only be shared with your written consent, or in rare cases where there is a serious safety risk or a legal requirement.

No, I don't prescribe medication. Your GP or psychiatrist will handle any medication needs.

Information shared through the website, including during the discovery call, is handled in line with data protection requirements. Further details are available in the Privacy Policy and Terms and Conditions on this website.

If we choose to work together, you will receive a therapy agreement before we start full sessions. This explains confidentiality, how your data is stored and used, and how our sessions will work.
