About me
I am a Consultant Clinical Psychologist and Mollart CBT’s Clinical Director. I founded Mollart CBT Ltd in 2016.
Training, qualifications & experience
Experience
I have experience of working with individuals, couples, adults, older adults, and adolescents, within a wide range of private and NHS healthcare settings. I practiced in the NHS for 12 years and worked as the Deputy Clinical lead for a London Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) NHS service. As part of this work, I provided consultation, supervision and training to therapists and other healthcare professionals, including GPs and consultants.
I specialize in working with couples and am passionate about using schema focussed CBT to work with clients who struggle with interpersonal difficulties such as fear of abandonment, mistrust of others, social exclusion, and people pleasing behaviours. Schema therapy can also be useful for feelings of failure and perfectionism.
In my NHS job, I specialised in supporting people who have long-term physical health problems such as chronic pain, chronic fatigue and diabetes.
I wrote my doctoral thesis on adolescents’ experiences of going to boarding school and have an interest in the impact of boarding school on psychological wellbeing.
As a mother of two young children, I also have an interest in working with clients adjusting to parenthood.
Qualifications
I hold a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Oxford University.
I am a registered Practitioner Psychologist with The Health Care Professional Council (HCPC), which monitors and regulates the practice of Clinical Psychologists.
I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist with The British Psychological Society (BPS). The BPS is the representative body for psychology and psychologists in the UK. Practicing certificates are only issued to Chartered Psychologists, which is the benchmark of professional recognition for a psychologist. It reflects the highest standards of knowledge and expertise.
I am an accredited Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist with the British Association of Behavioural Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP). The BABCP is the lead organisation for the theory, practice and development of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) in the UK. BABCP Accreditation is the “Gold Standard” that every CBT Psychotherapist is striving to achieve. To achieve accreditation with the BABCP demonstrates that the therapist has met the criteria outlined in their core profession, qualifications and clinical experience.
