I have experience in the assessment and management of ADHD and the assessment of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), alongside expertise in eating disorder assessment and intervention. My clinical experience includes comprehensive mental health assessment, risk management, care planning and case management, with a particular focus on supporting children and adolescents experiencing a range of mental health and neurodevelopmental difficulties.

I have experience providing family support and psychoeducation, as well as responding to clinical crises through effective intervention, de-escalation and risk management. I work collaboratively within multidisciplinary teams and use therapeutic communication skills to develop positive relationships, promote engagement and support individuals and their families throughout their care. I have a strong understanding of safeguarding and child protection procedures and am experienced in maintaining accurate clinical documentation and producing professional clinical reports. My practice is informed by evidence-based mental health interventions and a person-centred approach to care.

My areas of clinical expertise include ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder. I also have experience supporting individuals experiencing anxiety disorders, depression and low mood, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), emotional and behavioural difficulties, self-harm and suicidal ideation. In addition, I have experience working with neurodevelopmental disorders and co-occurring or complex mental health conditions.
