I am a London-based Chartered Educational, Child and Adolescent Psychologist with over 20 years’ experience supporting children, young people, families, schools, and organisations.
My work spans clinical, educational, and corporate settings, giving me a uniquely holistic understanding of how people learn, communicate, and thrive across different environments.
My career has taken me from supporting hundreds of children and families in schools, nurseries, and community settings to providing trauma‑informed psychological support for survivors of the Grenfell Tower fire and delivering consultation and training within large corporate environments . This breadth of experience allows me to bring depth, sensitivity, and clarity to every assessment, consultation, and training session.
What Guides My Work
My approach is grounded in a deep understanding of children, families, and the systems around them. I believe that every individual deserves to feel understood, valued, and supported to reach their full potential. My work centres on clear, compassionate communication and creating spaces where people feel heard, validated, and empowered to make meaningful change .
I use integrative, holistic, and standardised psychological assessments to build a detailed picture of each child’s strengths and needs. Strength‑based practice is at the heart of everything I do—because strengths are the foundation for confidence, resilience, and long‑term progress .
Areas of Expertise
I support children and young people with:
- Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, and Dyscalculia
- Processing and memory difficulties
- Emotional and behavioural needs
- Trauma and loss
- Social, emotional, and behavioural challenges
- Autism and ADHD, with specialist expertise in neurodiversity
As part of a multidisciplinary team, I carry out gold standard autism assessments using the ADOS 2 and ADI R, internationally recognised tools for determining whether a child meets diagnostic criteria for Autism Spectrum Condition.
Leadership, Training, and Corporate Work
Alongside clinical practice, I provide supervision, coaching, and consultation for leaders and professionals, including senior school staff. I also deliver psychology‑based talks and workshops on topics such as neurodiversity, grief and loss, resilience, the teenage brain, emotional regulation, and workplace wellbeing. All talks can be tailored or built bespoke to meet the needs of your organisation .
