My Story

 

I'm a Systemic Psychotherapist with extensive experience working children, adolescents, and adults a variety of settings. I hold a Masters degree in Marriage and Family Therapy from Edgewood College (Madison, Wisconsin, U.S.A) and am currently UKCP Registered. Before starting my private practice, I was employed for six years as a Specialist Clinician for Children’s Social Care by the Cambridgeshire County Council. My main role was to provide a systems perspective to social workers to ensure that the multitude of factors that contribute to a client’s needs are discussed and effective interventions are implemented.

Prior to moving to Cambridge, I was the Program Director of Healthy Within, a clinic in San Diego, California that treated individuals struggling with an eating disorder and other co-morbid diagnoses such as: Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, Depression, Personality Disorders, and addictions. I conducted individual, group and family sessions using Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I also participated in community outreach to raise awareness of eating disorders, body image and self-esteem issues in schools and college campuses. I performed a similar role as a Day Treatment Clinician at KidsPeace New England where I was responsible for conducting individual, group and family sessions while performing detailed assessments and treatment plans for children with a wide variety mental health challenges.

I decided to pursue private practice in the summer of 2018 as I missed working directly with individuals, couples, and families that want to improve their mental and emotional well-being. Every day I look forward to working with motivated clients to aid them in their self-discovery on improving their lives.
