About us

My name is Dr Anna Norris. I am a Clinical Psychologist, registered with the HCPC (Health and Care Professions Council), and a chartered member and associate fellow of the BPS (British Psychological Society). 

I, alongside a small team of associates, offer specialist assessment and therapy, including ADHD assessments and ADHD coaching. Please do take a look at our website www.oakgrovepsychology.co.uk to read more about the team and the services we offer. 

We have experienced the value of drawing upon a range of different therapeutic approaches, tending to integrate these as and when needed (so that these are tailored to an individual’s needs). We recognise the importance of the therapeutic relationship and the need for someone to feel safe and contained in order to share their concerns and difficulties. It is a privilege to support people to gain insight, manage their internal struggles and reduce distress, learn new skills, build resilience and work towards living a life in their values.

Training, qualifications & experience

Experience:

I have over 20 years of experience of working with a wide range of presenting difficulties, including anxiety, burnout and work-related stress, depression, low self-esteem, emotion regulation difficulties, ADHD, trauma and PTSD and relationship difficulties. I have worked in a number of NHS services and settings over the years, working directly with clients with longstanding difficulties, in addition to offering consultation, supervision and training.

Qualifications:

Doctorate in Clinical Psychology (DClinPsy) - Lancaster University

BSc (Hons) Psychology - Lancaster University

Training:

I have accessed training in the provision of specialist assessments (including personality disorder and Adult ADHD) and various therapies, including Compassion-Focused Therapy, Mentalisation-Based Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (accredited in 2023) & Structured Clinical Management. I have also undertaken training in the provision of supervision.
