Thank you for landing here.

 

My psychological practice is rooted in liberation and community psychology, drawing on therapeutics, poetry and social action as interconnected practices to support marginalised and racialised people. 

​

I am currently the lead psychologist for Beyond Equality, a community organisation working with men and boys to tackle gender-based violence. I am developing an anti-racist psychology curriculum to be delivered across secondary schools across Wales, in partnership with Cardiff & Vale university. I have previously built anti-racism as a core competence for training clinical psychologists at the University of Hertfordshire. I often teach and work with marginalised groups (e.g. lead facilitator for young people's Thinking Spaces on Broadwater Farm Estate, facilitating 1:1 spaces for staff for Global Majority staff at The Barbican)

 

I offer therapy spaces for individuals, couples, family and friends. I offer space to work with the body, exploring how trauma and histories of oppression can impact our relationships and day-to-day lives.  I provide regular supervision or mentoring for practitioners seeking to practice freedom, and work in anti-oppressive ways with marginalised communities. I also offer facilitation and consultation to organisations seeking to work in these ways. I regularly host therapeutic conversations. 

 

I am interested in the art of imperfection, non-linear growth, interdependence, transformative justice, imagining, and becoming. I ask: How can we create spaces for softness and compassion? How can we show love through our actions? How can we embrace each other’s madness?

 

I recognise life as cycles of repetition and practice. What we practice, grows. Some of my practices include dreaming, embodiment, compassion, prayer, joy, rest, play, radical acceptance, writing, and honesty.

​

I see the therapeutic place as sacred and generative. Beyond the therapy room, I am interested in working towards transforming the structures and conditions that induce collective distress and suffering. Suffering and madness is an understandable response to a traumatising world, especially for those racialised and marginalised.  

​

I have a Doctorate of Clinical Psychology from Salomons Institute of Clinical Psychology, a MSc in Forensic Clinical Psychology from IoPPN, and I continue to seek learning outside of what is scholared and deemed legitimate by academic institutions. I seek ways of knowing through lived experience, drawing on cultural, social and ancestral wisdom. I have 10 years’ experience working in clinical and community settings, including CAMHS, LAC services, school settings and homeless hostels.
