Clients seen:
I am trained across the lifespan. In my private practice I see young adults (16+) through to older adults.
Professional Training:
I am a warm and compassionate Clinical Psychologist and have been practicing for the last 17 years (including doctoral training). I have specialised in the treatment of eating disorders for the last 10 years. As a Principal Clinical Psychologist I was privileged to set up and be Clinical Lead of a CAMHS Community Eating Disorder Service for 8 years. In private practice I now treat adults (including young adults 16+) with any type of eating difficulty (primarily Anorexia Nervosa) and associated comorbidities. I believe that under 16’s should be seen by a multidisciplinary team and treated with a family based intervention in line with the evidence base. I provide CBT-E on an individual basis but am also highly skilled in providing support to family members or partners where appropriate.
