About me
I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and the British Psychological Society (BPS). I am an Associate Fellow of the BPS (AFBPsS).
I have worked in psychological services since 2003 and have specialised in working with adults experiencing a range of complex psychological difficulties. I work within the NHS and independently. I provide specialist psychological assessment and therapy to individuals, couples, families and groups. I also provide supervision, consultation and training to other professionals.
My areas of specialism include:
- Perinatal Mental Health
- Anxiety - generalised anxiety, panic, phobias, OCD, health anxiety
- Depression and low mood (including perinatal and postnatal depression)
- Grief, loss and bereavement
- People who have experienced trauma/abuse (including Post Traumatic Stress Disorder & Dissociation)
- Anger management problems
- Self esteem issues
- Relationship difficulties
- Self harm
- Psychosis
I am trained in a variety of therapeutic approaches and models to help people experiencing a variety of psychological difficulties, including Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), Mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Video Interactive Guidance (EMDR), Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Reflective Parenting (Mentalisation based therapy).
I am committed to developing a safe, non-judgemental and compassionate therapeutic alliance with clients in which difficulties can be explored and understood through the development of a collaborative formulation. A formulation explores a person’s life and the personal meaning of events, difficulties and experiences that contribute towards current distress. I work with clients to identify how and why their difficulties developed, how they get maintained and how they can manage or overcome their difficulties more effectively.
I offer a clinic in Stroud, Gloucestershire. If you would like to discuss accessing therapy, or to find out more information please contact me on 07855272817.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have a doctorate in Clinical Psychology and have worked in the NHS since 2003. I am a Chartered and Associate Fellow member of the British Psychological Society and am registered with the Health and Care Professions Council.
In addition to private practice, I work for the NHS in Gloucestershire, offering individual psychological therapy to adults, couples, families and groups. I also provide supervision, training and consultation to other professionals.
As a member of a regulated and professional governing body (HCPC and BPS), I am bound by a strict code of Conduct and Ethics and work to very high standards of skills, knowledge and behaviour.
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.
