About me
On the surface you may be functioning well, carrying high levels of responsibility in your employment or education, your relationships and daily life. On the inside you may find yourself feeling lost, anxious, overwhelmed, burnt out, disconnected or stuck in patterns that are hard to shift alone.
Hello, I am Dr Erin Reid, a Principal Counselling Psychologist working in private practice and a former NHS parental mental health service manager. I offer short- and long-term online and 'Walk and Talk' therapy to adults, young people, couples and families. I also offer clinical supervision to trainee and qualified psychologists and therapists.
I offer a safe, collaborative neuro-affirmative space for you to reflect on your identity questions and make sense of what is happening beneath the surface. This will enable you to make meaningful changes, and develop new ways of responding to challenges, so that you can find steadiness, clarity and emotional ease.
We will work together to understand your unique experiences, patterns and symptoms (how they developed, what maintains them, and what might allow them to shift). I draw on relational and systemic thinking, and pay attention to both your internal experiences and the wider relational, professional, and cultural contexts that shape them.
My practice adheres to the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) Standards and the British Psychology Society (BPS) Code of Ethics and Conduct.
Daytime and evening appointments are available.

Training, qualifications & experience
I am a Chartered Counselling Psychologist, an Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society, and an HCPC-registered practitioner.
Alongside my Doctorate in Counselling Psychology (City University), I have a BSc (Hons) in Applied Psychology (University of Durham), an MSc in Organisational and Social Psychology (LSE), and a Post Graduate Diploma in Systemic Practice.
For over a decade I worked as an NHS Psychologist and then a Psychology Service Manager. I now work in private practice and consult with the private and voluntary sector, the NHS and local authorities.
Yoga and long walks in nature are my self-care passions.
