Clinical background

My experience

I have extensive experience in using CBT with all major psychological problems. In the past I have worked at the Priory hospital and the Florence nightingale hospital under the supervision of many highly qualified and recognised cognitive behavioural professionals. During this time I worked with individuals on a 1:1 basis as well as running group sessions for problems such as relationship issues, social anxiety and OCD as well as depression and stress management.

I am a fully qualified cognitive behaviour therapist with a core profession of mental health nursing and I am accredited by the British Association of Cognitive and Behavioural Psychotherapists. During my time as a mental health nurse I worked helping people to recover from severe and enduring mental health problems in a variety of NHS settings.

Teaching and research

I am currently employed part time as a lecturer for the University Kings College London, where I teach the theory and practice of cognitive behaviour therapy to other healthcare professionals at degree level.

I have been involved in a range of research projects including exploring the impact of envy, psychosis and inflammatory bowel disease. I have a PhD from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience.
