Bsc Hons, MSc Psych Ed, PGCE, C. Psychol.

​I have over a decade’s experience working as an Educational and Child Psychologist in Inner London Boroughs as well as practising as a Primary School Teacher for 5 years prior to this. I am committed to supporting the Educational, emotional and social well being and development of pupils throughout their Education. I work very closely with parents and teachers through consultation in order to support the needs of the child.  I use a number of supportive psychological tools and assessments and I also provide therapeutic support to the children I work with.

​I have specialised in children’s complex social and communication needs including Autistic Spectrum Condition. I also specialise in working with children who have experienced anxiety and loss.
