Director, Clinical Psychology Services North West Ltd

I am a Clinical Psychologist, registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), a Chartered Psychologist and Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society (BPS).

I have enjoyed working in both clinical and clinical research posts (NHS and University) since qualifying as a Clinical Psychologist at the University of Liverpool in 2004. I have worked solely in private practice since September 2015 and I created Clinical Psychology Services North West in 2018.

I provide psychological therapy, specialist psychological assessments (including medico-legal assessments) and training. Appointments are offered in person or online, depending on your preference.

I am joined by two Associate Clinical Psychologists who provide medico-legal psychological assessments and related work. We are all experienced Clinical Psychologists and are registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). We are Chartered Psychologists and Associate Fellows of the British Psychological Society (BPS).

The services provided fall into three main areas:

Psychological Therapy

I provide Psychological Therapy for adults with emotional difficulties such as depression, anxiety, trauma, work stress, grief, low self-esteem, and those whose problems relate to a history of difficult experiences in childhood. An area of specialism is Clinical Health Psychology, helping people whose psychological difficulties relate to dealing with physical illness or injury.

I hold psychological therapy clinics at Spire Murrayfield Hospital on the Wirral and in central Liverpool. I also offer online appointments. People are sometimes referred to me by their GP or by another clinician involved in their care. I accept referrals from Clatterbridge Private Clinics on the Wirral and in Liverpool. I also accept self referrals.

I am registered with several health insurance companies including AXA-PPP, Aviva, BUPA, Cigna, WPA and Vitality Health. If you are with an insurer not mentioned here, please contact us as it is usually possible for me to be recognised by another insurer without any undue delay.

Medico-legal Psychological assessments

I, along with two Associates, provide specialist psychological assessments for the Court relating to personal injury and clinical negligence cases.

We appreciate the needs of the solicitors and agencies who instruct us, the people who attend for assessment and our duty to the Court. We provide an efficient and professional service; appointments are within four to six weeks of instruction and reports are completed within ten working days following the assessment.

Contact us if you would like further information, or would like to instruct us.

Training

I provide training on topics within clinical health psychology, such as emotional reactions to cancer, and breaking bad news.

Clinical Psychology Services North West routinely collects feedback from those who access our services to ensure we provide the best for those we work with. Jake, our Assistant Psychologist, works on service evaluation and regularly collates feedback and outcomes data to ensure the services we provide are effective.
