ABOUT ME

I trained as an Educational Psychologist at Southampton University in 2004 and completed my professional doctorate at UCL in 2020. I am an experienced and skilled Chartered Educational Psychologist (EP) and am an Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society. I have worked as an Educational Psychologist in several Local Authorities. Alongside my role as a Senior Educational Psychologist within a Local Authority and my role as EP/Education Advisor for Long Covid Kids, I work privately to support children, young people, schools and families across Sussex, Kent, Hampshire and South London. I am based in Surrey but can also work remotely.

​

I am registered to practice with The Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) meaning I adhere to standards of conduct, proficiency and continuing professional development and practice in line with the British Psychological Society Code of Ethics and Conduct

​

Prior to qualifying as an EP in 2004, I worked as a teacher in a mainstream primary school in the London Borough of Brent and in a specialist school for children with autism in the London Borough of Ealing. I also worked as an Assistant Educational Psychologist in the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead.


I am married with two teenage children and I enjoy walking my cavapoo Cora, reading and photography.
