Nice to meet you

With over 15 years of clinical experience, I am a UK and Sweden-licensed Clinical Psychologist who specializes in working with adults and children with neurological and neurodevelopmental needs.
I hold a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the University of London (UK) and I am dedicated to providing the highest standard of care to my clients. My practice is ethically centred, adhering to national/international guidelines, and informed by the latest evidence. I use a person-centred approach, and I employ different psychological models to better understand my clients and their unique needs.

I create a transparent, trusting, empathic and non-judgmental therapeutic space that allows my clients to feel safe to share their personal stories and embark on their journey of self-exploration. Let me help you unlock your potential and live the life you deserve.

EXPERIENCE
My methods
Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
In CBT, we learn to deal with unhelpful thoughts and behaviours that keep us stuck.
Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT)
In CFT, we learn how to be compassionate towards ourselves.
Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT)
In ACT, we learn to stay focused on the present moment and accept thoughts and feelings without judgment.
Mindfulness Based Cognitive therapy (MBCT)
In MBCT, we learn how to cultivate mindfulness.
Solution Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT)
In SFBT, we learn to notice and utilise our inherent strengths better and start living our ideal selves.
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
In DBT, we learn to deal with very intense emotions and live with the reality of our lives.
Narrative Therapy
In narrative therapy, we learn to retell our stories to highlight the strengths and courage that have always been there to bring about a more helpful self-perception and better mental health.
Systemic Therapy
In systemic therapy, we learn to understand how interactions and relationships (or 'systems') can influence us and how we influence them in return.
Positive Behaviour Support (PBS)
In PBS, we learn to replace maladaptive behaviours with adaptive behaviours and aim to increase the quality of life. PBS is a form of Applied Behavioural Analysis (ABA) and includes a Functional Behaviour Analysis (FBA). PBS can be used in Parent Behaviour Management Training (PBMT).
I am trained in using different therapeutic models to understand the client. This lets me better tailor to individual and unique needs.
