I offer either weekly or fortnightly appointments depending on what suits you best, and we'll agree the right frequency together before we begin. Appointments are between 9.30am and 8pm Monday-Friday.

If you're here, it might be because food, eating, or how you feel in your body has started to feel harder than it used to. I support people towards a life where food feels less loaded, and where their sense of worth isn’t tied to what they eat, or how their body looks. 

I'm a specialist eating disorder therapist, with training through the Centre for Research on Eating Disorders at Oxford, and currently Psychological Services Lead at a private eating disorder clinic. I offer evidence-based tailored therapy drawing on both clinical training and lived experience of eating disorder recovery, so I never lose sight of what it actually feels like to be the person in front of me.

Sessions are collaborative - I bring clinical experience, you bring insight into your life as the expert in your own story. Whatever brings you here, the goal is the same: a life that feels less controlled by food, weight, appearance or self-criticism.

Lasting change comes from therapy that’s flexible to you, not a fixed formula – built on a strong, honest relationship between us. My style is warm, exploratory, and practical. I'll be with you at every step, and I'll also gently challenge when it's needed.

I believe wholeheartedly that recovery is possible, whatever your history and however long you've been struggling. If the way you think and feel about food, your body, or yourself is getting in the way of living your life, then I would love to help.

I also have experience across national charities and the NHS, and see clients privately online and face-to-face in South Manchester for support with anxiety and low mood.

My expertise and absolute passion lie in supporting people to navigate and recover from eating disorders and body distress, and helping people to see that if things have started to feel harder than they used to - with food, body image, or exercise, that there is a way out. 

Whatever form this takes, I work with it - from anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and ARFID, to orthorexia and excessive/compulsive exercise. If you're experiencing constant thoughts about food, weight, and appearance, or feeling stuck in cycles you can't break then I'd love to help you.

I have a particular interest in how neurodivergence and eating disorders intersect - and in adapting therapy so it actually fits how your brain works.

I also work with underlying conditions, and can offer support with:

• Perfectionism, and the pressure of always pushing yourself but never feeling like it's enough

• Self-criticism

• Anxiety, including health anxiety and social anxiety

• Low mood and depression

• Autism and ADHD 

• Body image difficulties including body dysmorphia

I don't believe one approach fits everyone. My training spans several evidence-based methods, and I draw on these flexibly depending on what you need - including CBT-E, the specialist approach recommended as first-line NHS treatment, alongside compassion focused therapy, and CBT-AR for ARFID.

If you've been through a CBT-E pathway before and felt it didn't quite fit, that's okay; part of my job is finding what actually works for you.

My goal is to help you figure out what might be keeping you trapped, while encouraging you to keep going when things feel difficult. I genuinely love the work I do, and am so grateful that I'm able to see the real change that therapy can make to people's lives.

I offer a free 20-minute consultation before we begin - a chance for you to ask questions, get a feel for how I work, and decide whether I'm the right fit for you.

Before we start, I take time to understand you properly: your history, what you've already tried, and what you actually need. The way we work will be shaped around you.

Sessions are 50 minutes for both online and face-to-face therapy, at £90 per session.

If you're not sure whether what you're experiencing fits neatly into a category, that's okay. Get in touch and we'll figure it out together.
