I am a Chartered Consultant Psychologist, registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (Forensic) and a Chartered member of The British Psychological Society. I am also a registered Psychologist with the Dubai Healthcare Authority. I have a Doctorate degree in Psychology and have worked in clinical and forensic settings for over 20 years, both in the UK and the UAE, leading specialists services. This has included the provision of psychological expertise for Abu Dhabi police in the United Arab Emirates, and leading therapeutic services in the UK for adolescents and adults with autism and ADHD, and more recently, providing consultancy services to a private clinic in Dubai. I am a member of several well respected professional bodies in the field of psychology and have contributed to various peer-reviewed international journals, offering insights into based on extensive research and practical experience.

One of my notable specialisms is my work with autism spectrum condition and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

Specialist coaching can help clients to develop their understanding and navigate their lives more effectively, through developing their strengths and empowering the client with effective strategies and tools with a blend of positivity, creativity, education and collaboration.

Working with me

I see adolescents and adults from aged 13 years onwards (in some cases I may see younger children for specific assessments). It is best practice if you notify your GP (or Psychiatrist if you see one).

The first step is to contact me by email or phone, and I will then reply to this and explain the next steps to you.

During your first assessment session I will complete a registration form and ask you to sign a simple contract regarding attendance of appointments, payment and confidentiality. We will then agree how to best work together moving forward, to help you to achieve your goals.
