About me
As an HCPC registered Clinical Psychologist, I have provided psychological assessment, psychological formulation, and psychological therapies services for adults experiencing mental health problems. I have 21 years experience in NHS psychological services, and have held the role of Consultant Clinical Psychologist for the past 12 years.
I am experienced in offering both brief and longer-term psychological therapies, and I am trained in understanding complex problems from a number of psychological perspectives. I believe it is important to be both informed by evidence-based practice and also offer support that is tailored to an individual’s unique needs.
This is especially important if you are experiencing a number of difficulties and need a personalised formulation of those difficulties to guide the selection of therapy approaches.
