Experience

Alongside my private clinic, I currently work in a central London NHS team as a Highly Specialist Senior Psychologist in a Parent and Baby Psychology Service. I also work in a specialist Childhood Trauma Informed Practice team delivering training and consultation on complex childhood trauma to local community services for children and families.

Throughout my career, I have gained substantial experience working across diverse NHS settings, including adult mental health services, child and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS), and specialist adult and child trauma services.

Drawing on this breadth of experience across the lifespan, I now specialise my private practice in perinatal psychology, focusing my expertise on supporting families during this pivotal time
