Things I do: Clinical practice I’m a Chartered Clinical Psychologist registered with and regulated by the Health Care Professions Council (HCPC) and British Psychological Society (BPS). I work independently, seeing children and adults for psychological assessment and therapy. I most often work with anxiety, depression, panic, stress, burnout, trauma, neurodiversity, physical health, sport, and exercise. I use a person-centred approach, informed by acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), compassion focussed therapy (CFT) and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). I also have a specialist interest in outdoor therapy and I’m currently the Honorary Treasurer of the British Psychological Society’s Faculty of Holistic Psychology. Research and teaching I enjoy research and regularly publish in academic journals, present at conferences and review/edit articles for psychological journals. I also teach, give lectures/seminars and supervise research students. Most my research activities are at the University of Leicester where I work part-time on the clinical psychology doctoral training programme (DClinPsy), and at the University of Birmingham, where I’m an associate research fellow. Corporate I value the application of psychology within organisations. Supporting businesses to shape working environments that foster psychological growth, understanding and well-being. I provide training and consultancy on topics such as mental health, positive psychology, mindfulness, nature connection, behaviour change, learning transfer, resilience and self-regulation.
