Thank you for considering a referral.
I welcome referrals from GPs, psychiatrists, psychologists, allied health professionals,
universities, employers, insurers, solicitors, and other healthcare providers. Individuals
are also welcome to self-refer. I provide comprehensive psychological assessment and
therapy for patients presenting with a broad range of emotional, psychological, and
neurodevelopmental difficulties. I work primarily with adults, and can also see older
adolescents aged 16–17 where appropriate.
Clinical Approach
My clinical background includes specialist adult mental health services in New Zealand,
the NHS in Scotland, and one of the two National Specialised Rehabilitation Units in
Ireland, supporting individuals with chronic and treatment-resistant mental illness.
Clinical Areas
I accept referrals for individuals presenting with mild, moderate, and complex
psychological difficulties, including:
· Anxiety disorders
· Depression and mood disorders
· Trauma and post-traumatic stress
· Stress, burnout, and adjustment difficulties
· Relationship and interpersonal difficulties
· Personality difficulties
· Psychosis and unusual experiences
· Emotional regulation difficulties
· Life transitions and identity concerns
· Challenges relating to navigating life with neurodiversity
· Diagnostic clarification and psychological formulation
· Adult autism and ADHD assessment
Psychological Therapy
I provide formulation-driven, integrative psychological therapy tailored to each
individual’s needs and goals. Therapeutic approaches include Compassion Focused
Therapy (CFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behaviour
Therapy (CBT), Schema-informed therapy, trauma-focused cognitive behavioural
therapies, CBT for Psychosis, and DBT-informed interventions.
Adult Autism & ADHD Assessments
I provide comprehensive psychological assessments for adult autism, ADHD, and co-
occurring autism and ADHD (AuDHD). Assessment incorporates clinical interviewing
and recognised standardised measures, including the ADOS-2, ADI-R (where
appropriate), and DIVA-5. My approach is neuroaffirming, with an emphasis on
diagnostic clarification, formulation, strengths, support needs, and personalised
recommendations. Comprehensive written reports and feedback sessions are included
as part of the assessment process.
Communication & Reports
With the individual’s informed consent, I am happy to liaise with referring professionals
where this supports assessment, treatment planning, or continuity of care.
Referrals
Healthcare professionals are welcome to contact me to discuss the suitability of a
referral. If I believe another practitioner or service would better meet an individual’s
needs, I will endeavour to advise accordingly.
