I am a qualified Occupational Therapist (member of HCPC and BAOT). I have 15 years work experience in this field, supporting adults through a range of mental health difficulties. Currently I work with University students and have just joined Wellbeing Therapy Solutions as an Associate.

As a parent I have successfully guided my offspring through University, so I know many of the pitfalls that can occur. I want to support those starting out so they can thrive at Uni and fulfill their potential.

I am very keen on preventive wellbeing options for people to keep well; both physically and mentally. I encourage clients to use occupation as way of coping with the challenges of the world; to create routines, habits and overcome barriers such as health conditions or low motivation. I aim to empower people, promoting independence and reducing stigma around mental health.

Recently I started a peer support group for students with ADHD which has been very successful.

My specific expertise is in facilitating groups, workshops and seeing people 1-1 on range of issues – such as low mood, sleep, anxiety, stress management, coping with change.

I can ‘Get you to a better place’.
