A warm welcome to my website. I am a psychologist with a specialist interest in sleep.

 

​​​​My Approach

I apply my 25 years of experience and unique psychological frameworks to understand what's driving your struggles, but also recognise that improving sleep sometimes requires a multidisciplinary lens, in which case I draw on my network of expert colleagues to provide additional expertise where necessary. ​All my consultations take into account your culture, identity, life experiences, overall health, and personal context; all these things shape your relationship with rest—and we take all of this into account to create a person-centred intervention.

​

My Support in Private Practice

My private practice focuses predominantly on supporting adults with acute and chronic insomnia, individually and in groups. ​I also partner with organisations and health professionals to enhance staff wellbeing through evidence-based training. Having delivered over100 talks across the UK and internationally, I've helped teams tackle shift work challenges and educated teams to enhance safety and performance and positive energy at work through better sleep knowledge. 

​

Experience and Standards of Professional Practice

My practice is guided by extensive experience of working in community and specialist NHS services both as a researcher and practitioner. I currently work  with the UK's largest multidisciplinary insomnia service based at Royal London Hospital for Integrated Medicine (RLHIM) under University College London Hospitals (UCLH). I am HCPC-registered, hold professional indemnity insurance, DBS-checked, and receive regular clinical supervision.
