Psychological Assessment & Treatment
Hi! I’m Dr Gemma. I have been working in the field of mental health for over 20 years, and as a qualified clinical psychologist since 2011. I am passionate about promoting positive mental health and work holistically with the mind and body to help my clients develop a greater understanding of their difficulties and achieve lasting change.
I spent a large part of my career working in NHS inpatient services (adolescent and adult) before opening my private practice. I have also worked as an expert witness for the Family Courts since 2016 and been involved in the development of a psychological assessment centre.
I understand that acknowledging difficulties in coping can be a challenge in itself, but I believe that we all experience stressors that can impact our mental health and emotional wellbeing at some point in our lives. In choosing to work alongside me I can assure that you will receive a warm, empathic and non-judgemental space in which to explore, learn and grow.
