I am a Chartered Educational Psychologist, registered with the British Psychological Society and I am also registered with Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) in the UK.

I completed my Doctoral Training in Educational, Child and Adolescent Psychology (DEdPsy) at the Institute of Education (now UCL) in London in 2009. I have since then worked in a range of educational settings in two different London boroughs, including children’s centres, early years settings, mainstream primary and secondary schools, special schools and units. I haved used consultation (joint problem solving), assessment, intervention, training and research activities to promote positive outcomes for young people. This is across a number of areas, including learning, behaviour, social-emotional and wellbeing.

Before that I completed my BSc in Psychology at Cardiff University. I then went on to do my MSc in Anthropology of Learning and Cognition at the London School of Economics. After that I spent a year working in schools, supporting children with their learning.

Amongst many other areas, I am trained in Solution Focussed Approaches, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, SCERTS and Video Interaction Guidance.
