Biography
My first degree was in Psychology at Southampton University. After graduation I travelled for a year before settling in South London. I spent two years working in a partnership project between Childrens' Charity NCH and Surrey County Council, supporting vulnerable children and their families. I then worked in forensic and primary care settings before beginning the Clinical Psychology doctorate training at UCL. Since qualifying as a Clinical Psychologist I have worked with older adults in a CMHT offering services for organic and functional difficulties, within an IAPT setting and within secondary care services for working age adults.
I joined the PsychD Surrey course as an Associate Clinical Tutor in September 2016 and then as a Teaching Fellow in August 2017. I was Admissions Lead from June 2019 - August 2022. I work at the University for four days a week and also work clinically with working age adults.
Research interests
My interest is in equality, diversity and inclusion, specifically related to the training and qualified clinical psychology community.
Departmental duties
I am the Joint Programme Lead for the PsychD Clinical psychology training programme and I am responsible for overseeing admissions, the academic component of the programme and our accredited specialist pathways. I am also the EDI lead for the programme and chair the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion sub-committee.
