As an award-winning psychologist, I offer comprehensive psychologist services that support you in moving toward your goals. I can help you stay motivated and focused on achieving your long-term aspirations while effectively managing the present. Additionally, I work at an energetic and intuitive level to assist you in unpacking and processing the difficult experiences from your past that may be holding you back now. Many of us don’t always recognize how unprocessed traumas or conflicts can hinder our progress, affecting our relationships, mood, happiness, motivation, and more. If you're seeking guidance, I also provide life coaching and ADHD diagnostic assessments to help you navigate these challenges.
What kind of commitment do I need to make?
Together we work towards you achieving your goals through life coaching, and there is no need for a prescribed number of sessions. You might find that one or two sessions are enough to put you on the path to achievement. Many of my clients also benefit from ADHD diagnostic assessments and dip in and out of psychologist services as needed.
How do we get started?
How do we get started?
The first step is to book that session for ADHD diagnostic assessments. This is where we will get an idea of how well we work together and what our next steps should be from here. Engaging in life coaching through our psychologist services is the first step to becoming your best self.

Practice & Role
I am qualified to carry out structured ADHD diagnostic assessments using validated tools, structured clinical interviews, and formal reporting. These assessments can provide a formal diagnosis that may support access to adjustments, further treatment, or onward medical referral.
I am not a clinical psychologist and do not prescribe medication. I work under the professional title of psychologist (not a protected title in the UK) and always practice responsibly within the scope of my training.
My work combines psychological expertise with life coaching. Coaching people is my passion, and I approach all work with a trauma-informed, ethical, and person-centred perspective.
