Experience


I am an experienced Clinical Psychologist specialising in child and adolescent mental health. I have over 18 years experience in the NHS treating a wide range of mental health problems and psychological difficulties. I have developed a strong multi disciplinary network of professionals and consult closely with colleagues to provide an integrated service. Alongside my Independent Practice I provide psychological support to staff as a member of the Health & Wellbeing Team at Kingston Hospital NHS Trust.

 

In addition to my clinical work, I teach on the Masters Course for Developmental Psychology and Clinical Practice  at UCL and the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families. I am the Module Lead for Assessment and Planning Clinical Interventions. 

​

Over time, I have developed a special interest in eating disorders and held the position of Therapy Lead and Team Leader for the Vincent Square Children and Young People's  Community Eating Disorder Service in Central London.  

​

I am an experienced clinical supervisor and as a CBT Trained supervisor and BABCP accredited CBT Therapist, have offered Specialist CBT supervision to many professionals training in CBT and seeking BABCP accreditation. I have delivered bespoke training workshops to CAMHs staff (Trust Wide), GP's and School Staff and been invited to contribute to the PHSE curriculum at several large secondary schools.
