Expert Witness
I have been completing psychological assessments and legal reports for a number of years.

Supervision
I can provide clinical supervision for generic or specific clinical needs, which is a requirement for continuing professional development for many healthcare professionals. Group or individual supervision is available for psychologists, trainee psychologists or other healthcare professionals working within a variety of clinical specialities. I am registered on the British Psychological Society’s Register of Applied Psychology Practice Supervisors (RAPPS), which is designed to recognize psychologists with special expertise in supervision. I can also offer reflective practice sessions and mentoring.
