Biography:

Welcome, I am here for anyone experiencing concerns relating to their body image, weight, or eating behaviour. I provide evidence-based psychological assessment, treatment & support to individuals struggling with disordered eating, body image, & eating disorders & associated mental health issues. I also provide non-judgemental support for those considering bariatric surgery, or adjusting to post-surgery life.
I combine my research expertise with clinical work, utilising evidence-based therapies such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Strengths-based approaches, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) as well as CBT-Enhanced for eating disorders.
Whilst I have a PhD in eating behaviour, I am here to learn about you and your experience. I love to explore what drives us to do the things we do, such that long-term behavioural change is possible.
