About me
I am an experienced Chartered Clinical Psychologist offering individualised psychological assessment and therapy for a broad range of mental health difficulties including anxiety, panic, OCD, depression, grief and loss, PTSD and trauma, relationship difficulties, adjustment to physical health difficulties and many more. I am a highly trained, professionally registered and state regulated mental health professional with over nineteen years of experience of working with adults and older adults in both the NHS and private sector. Whatever your mental health needs, you can be assured of receiving a confidential, high-quality, safe and effective therapy service using only evidence-based therapies.

Training, qualifications & experience
I have over nineteen years experience working as a Clinical Psychologist. I graduated from the University of Edinburgh in 1991 with an M.A. (Hons) degree in Psychology.
I initially worked as a Research Assistant and latterly as a Research Fellow with Heriot-Watt University and Edinburgh University respectively, gaining experience in applied psychology and completing my MPhil in the field of occupational stress.
Prior to clinical training I coordinated and ran a multicentre research study investigating quality of life for the World Health Organisation.
In 2007, I graduated top of my class attaining a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology at the University of Edinburgh, winning the prestigious Birrell Prize. I was also awarded the Psige Research Prize in 2008 for a paper based on my doctoral research on attitudes to mental health in later life.
Since graduating I have spent the majority of my clinical career working in busy adult/older adult and clinical health psychology services within the NHS and latterly running my own successful private therapy practice.
Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The HCPC are an independent, UK-wide health regulator. They set standards of professional training, performance and conduct for 16 professions.
They keep a register of health professionals who meet their standards, and they take action if registered health professionals fall below those standards. They were created by a piece of legislation called the Health Professions Order 2001.
Registration means that a health professional meets national standards for their professional training, performance and conduct.

Further information
Please note that at this time I offer clients a choice of in-person (Cupar office, Thursday mornings), online or telephone appointments (Tues/Wed/Thurs). Online working may be unfamiliar to some, however, you can be assured that the clinical outcomes compared to in-person therapy are equivalent for many mental health conditions. In addition, I find that it allows people to access sessions who may have previously had to travel significant distances to do so. Sessions can also be accessed in the comfort, safety and privacy of your own home or private space, and at times convenient to you.
To get started you will need to have a device (mobile phone, laptop, PC etc.) with a camera and microphone and be able to find a safe confidential space with internet access for the duration of the appointment.
