I am a Clinical Psychologist who works with a range of mental health difficulties including anxiety, phobias, grief and loss, and relationship difficulties. I am particularly experienced in working with people struggling with the effects of trauma from childhood or adulthood, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), Complex PTSD, substance use, and social anxiety. In all my work, I adapt therapy to your needs, including neurodiversity (e.g. ADHD), health issues, and cultural contexts. Alongside my work at ABODE, I work in a specialist trauma service in the NHS, and research social anxiety treatments at University of Oxford.

During my time as a counsellor I have helped clients through many challenging and distressing life issues, just a few would be, Anxiety, Stress, low self-esteem, bereavement and loss, feelings of shame or guilt.
You may have been troubled by something for a while and have tried talking to friends or family, but how you feel hasn’t changed. You may be kept awake by anxiety or stress but you can’t put your finger on what it is that is keeping you awake. Or in fact you do know what is troubling you but have never been able to talk about it. Major changes in your life may have created a loss within the person you once were. Perhaps you feel that you lack purpose and that everything is hopeless. We as humans are very good at pushing things down inside, locking them in a box and marking them DO NOT OPEN, but eventually the box breaks open.

Would you like to learn the skills to manage these concerns and be more resilient? To be able to live a life which truly holds meaning and happiness where your aspirations and dreams become achievable and a reality?

Examples of issues I can help with: feelings of stress and anxiety, panic attacks, feelings of depression, sadness or emptiness, problems with anger, relationships, confidence problems, feeling burdened by shame or guilt, feelings of loneliness or isolation, low self- esteem and motivation.
Hello and welcome. Making the decision to begin therapy or counselling can be anxiety provoking. It is important, therefore, to find the right therapist or counsellor for you, as this is a vital element of the psychotherapeutic process. Finding a therapist or counsellor you feel safe with and with whom you have a sense of connection will enable you to explore the issues you are experiencing. People of all ethnicities and social backgrounds seek therapy for a plethora of reasons, and I welcome patients whatever their culture, ethnicity, nationality, sexual orientation, or gender.

I have been working for over 21 years with people who have a wide range of issues including, relationship and work problems, low self esteem, addictions and other forms of self harm, abuse, eating disorders, bereavement as well as people who suffer from stress and anxiety or feel low, depressed and suicidal. I am also qualified to work with couples and groups about relationships. Most of my training and work as a counsellor has been about really learning to listen to people, hearing the ‘music’ behind their words and sensing their deepest feelings, hurts, joys and fears as it is then that therapeutic healing can occur.

Hi, My name is Nav (she/her) and I am a therapist who works with people who are anxious, depressed and often struggling with identity and self esteem. Often feelings of grief and loss emerge as I help you uncover the shame you may have felt your whole life. My clients are predominantly from the BIPOC community and are sometimes LGBTQ+. I have over time developed a specialism for helping those with layered intersectionality and the challenges this brings when navigating the world, which can sometimes feel like a lonely place. We can work together and over time help you to establish deeper relationships and a clearer sense of self.

Sometimes unexpected shifts happen and life can feel overwhelming. Anxiety, stress, or challenges in relationships can feel hard to move through. I offer a Person-Centred therapy space that can help you to explore what’s happening in your world, your experiences (past and present), thoughts, feelings, and ways of relating (with self and others). By paying attention to the present moment and noticing what is coming up for you, I can help you to find new ways of understanding yourself and your experiences. And, in the process, to find hope too.

Supporting young people aged 13-25, to recognise, understand and develop strategies to manage anxiety is my specialism.
Perhaps you’re a teenager or young adult, who experiences physical symptoms of anxiety (such as stomach aches or racing heart), which make you want to avoid certain situations. Or maybe you’re a parent or guardian, eager to get the best support for a loved one who struggles with anxious thoughts or behaviours. Rest assured, you’ve come to the right place. I care. My interest in providing timely treatment for difficulties such as these is the reason why I founded Flourishing Futures Psychology. I too was prone to getting tangled up with anxiety when I was younger, so I know how it can try to trip you up.

Do you have communication problems in your marriage or other relationships? Do you have negative thoughts? Maybe you feel you need help in making adjustments? These are things I can help you with.. Taking the first step in reaching out for help is often daunting, but I can support you in this.

We all go through periods in our life where we feel sad, anxious or overwhelmed by our difficulties and struggle to find a way forward. Perhaps you are going through a life transition, relationship breakdown or feeling stuck and lost as to how to make changes? Often these feelings can be linked to experiences from our childhood. Unlocking this can help make sense of what we are experiencing in the present. I can help you move forward by giving space and support to work through these feelings, make links and look at any challenges you face from a different perspective.
