About

I am a Copenhagen-based psychologist and psychotherapist from the United Kingdom.

I have a special interest in neurodiversity, specifically autism in women and the impact of immigration on mental wellbeing and offer individual sessions online and on the phone.

Previous Work

After my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology at UCL in 2015, I worked in primary care and refugee services in the NHS and as an expert witness providing medico-legal assessments for people seeing asylum in UK, with Criterion A.

As part of a small group of psychologists in North East London NHS and Forest Farm Peace Garden, we co-founded Growing Roots, a gardening group for refugees.

Together with Sophie Standing, we co-created Camouflage, a graphic novel on autistic women’s experiences based on a research paper co-written with Will Mandy and Robyn Steward.

Professional Registration

I am registered as a practitioner psychologist with the Health Care Professionals Council in the UK, and as an authorised psychologist by the Patient Health Authority in Denmark. I am registered with the Danish Supervisory Board of Psychological Practice and I adhere to the Duty of Confidentiality and the Nordic Code of Ethics in my practice.
