I am a passionate educational psychologist with over ten years of experience. I also have five years of experience working in schools and early years settings in various roles supporting children and young people. I have worked in the north east, Cornwall and Essex.

​

I am skilled in assessment, consultation, training delivery, service development, critical incidents, supervision, research and report writing. I have a strong understanding of learning differences and appropriate interventions to support children to make progress. I gained specialist experience of working in social and emotional needs whilst working with a youth offending team as a senior specialist educational psychologist for four years.

 

I particularly favour approaches that utilise positive psychology for example solution-  oriented approaches and narrative approaches. I am trained in the use of the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule and I am also undertaking training in the use of Video Interaction Guidance.

 

In my spare time I enjoy going to gym classes, travel and the theatre.
