ONLINE PSYCHOLOGICAL THERAPY
High-quality, effective and expert online therapy in Devon and the UK
Struggling with your mental and emotional wellbeing?
I can support you to move beyond surviving to thriving & flourishing.
Together in therapy we will explore and understand the psychological roots of your experiences and find ways for you to make meaningful, long-lasting changes in your life.
I will help you become empowered to manage your emotional wellbeing and mental health. Throughout your therapy journey with me, you will experience safe, compassionate, and confidential support using evidence-based psychological approaches.
To begin your therapy journey, I offer a free 15-minute consultation call via video or phone to think about how we might work together.
The first session
Therapy begins with an assessment meeting to discuss the problems you are facing and explore how therapy might be helpful. You will be guided in reflecting on the current areas of concern and to think about what you hope to achieve over the course of therapy.
Ongoing therapy sessions
In the early phase of therapy, we develop a shared psychological understanding to make better sense of how and why things developed. As therapy progresses, we work together to reflect more deeply, explore change, and build on your strengths and resilience. You will be invited to review progress regularly and share feedback to help guide our direction.
Online therapy sessions are available on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. Just get in touch to ask about current appointment availability.
The therapeutic approach
My goal is to offer you space to heal, grow and thrive using effective psychological tools that you can apply in your daily life and continue to use after therapy has ended.
I offer person-centred, inclusive and trauma-informed therapy that is tailored to you and your unique experience. I am trained in a number of psychotherapy approaches and integrate these different approaches to offer therapy that is most helpful to you and informed by the evidence and clinical research.

CBT: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
CBT involves exploring how thoughts, beliefs and thinking patterns impact on our emotional wellbeing, responses and bodily experiences. It helps us recognise how our interpretations and impressions of events shape how we feel and what we do. CBT might start with here-and-now problems and can also include exploring the impact of the past on the present. Trauma-focused CBT is offered to support recovery from trauma experiences.

CFT: Compassion Focused Therapy
CFT helps us train our minds in bringing compassion into our daily lives. It acknowledges the in-built capacity we all have for kindness, empathy, warmth and sensitivity, and also the blocks and barriers that might get in the way of connecting with these areas. CFT helps us reduce feelings of threat and self-criticism and develop our skills and resources to feel safer and soothed as we learn to become a better friend to ourselves.
ACT: Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
ACT helps us work towards living a more meaningful and purposeful life. It involves building on our personal values to shape our daily lives and future. With ACT practices and skills, we learn how to develop greater psychological flexibility, meaning that we enhance our ability to de-fuse from unhelpful thinking and approach rather than avoid experiences (even those which are unwanted).
Mindfulness: Mindfulness based therapies
Mindfulness-based interventions help us develop skills with retraining our attention. It helps us understand the role of attention and awareness on how we feel and what we do. We learn how to pay attention without judgement and bring our focus to the present moment with purpose and clarity. Mindfulness-based therapy helps to change the way we think and feel about our inner and external experiences, and become more self-aware.
