CBT & EMDR Therapy
- for Women & Mums
As a therapist specialising in maternal mental health, I'm here to support you wherever you are on your journey. Whether you're experiencing anxiety during pregnancy, processing birth trauma, dealing with postnatal depression, struggling with mum guilt, mum rage, or adjusting to your new identity as a mother — I'm here. I support women experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and trauma outside of motherhood, because your struggles matter at every stage of life.
I’ve spent over a decade specializing in working in maternal mental health, supporting women in their transition to motherhood in the NHS as a Perinatal Lead and in my private practice partnering with organisations such as The Motherhood Group as their Resident Psychotherapist.
I also offer specialist support for food allergy anxiety - for adults and parents of children living with food allergies.
I work with women online across the UK and internationally, and offer in-person sessions in Hitchin, Hertfordshire and Biggleswade, Bedfordshire. As a mum I understand that childcare isn’t always possible, so you’re welcome to attend alone or bring your baby along to our session.
A gentle space to hold you while you’re healing.
Women's experiences are unique and so are the pressures we carry. From the expectations placed on us as daughters, partners and mothers, to the invisible mental load of holding everything together — women often put themselves last, and it comes at a cost.
As a woman, a mum and a Trinidadian woman of Chinese, Indian and African heritage, I understand that representation in the therapy room matters. And honestly, that's why I created a space where you don't have to explain yourself, justify your feelings or shrink to fit — whether you're navigating motherhood, identity, cultural expectations or simply trying to find yourself again.
I work with all women, embracing our diverse experiences and backgrounds. I'm particularly passionate about supporting Black, Asian and Caribbean women, because I know how rare it is to find a therapist who truly gets it.
When we support women and mothers, it creates a ripple effect on their families and the wider society - and this is why I partner with orgranisations such as The Motherhood Group and Black Baby Loss Awareness.
