Welcome to my website. How can I help?
Thank you for visiting my website.
I'm a clinical psychologist, psychological psychotherapist and EMDR consultant and supervisor now working totally online.
I work with adults, mainly using Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), across the whole range of psychological problems, including: anxiety, depression, obsessions, compulsions addictions (substance use, gambling and sex and love addictions) and trauma.
I have particular experience and expertise in working with survivors of traumas of all kinds including abuse (emotional, physical, pschological and sexual), accidents, disaster and war, substantial expertise in working with the difficulties experienced by present and past members of the uniformed services and in psychological aspects of the management of major incidents and disasters.
I also work on a voluntary basis with organisations working with refugees, asylum seekers and migrants.
I CURRENTLY HAVE VACANCIES FOR NEW CLIENTS
In addition to clinical work, consultancy, psychological teaching and training, and individual and group supervision (especially EMDR supervision) I am also available for media work on radio and television and in the press (see my Media page)
