I am currently a first year Trainee Clinical Psychologist of the Oxford Doctorate in Clinical Psychology training course. My first placement shall be within the Crisis Resolution and Home Treatment Team with working age adults.
Prior to starting training, I worked as an Assistant Psychologist in a Substance Misuse and Alcohol Community Mental Health Team. A main part of my role was working with individuals with PTSD or complex PTSD symptoms, focussing on safety, stabilisation, distress tolerance and emotion regulation.
I completed an integrated master’s degree at the University of Birmingham in Psychology and Psychological Practice. During my fourth year I worked as an honorary Assistant Psychologist on a 6-month placement in a National Deaf Mental Health Service (community & inpatient setting). Following this experience, I have worked within an eating disorder service, in a Category B men’s prison and on an acute inpatient unit.
Interests
My interests broadly include neuropsychology and the impact of early life trauma. I am also looking forward to working across different areas in clinical psychology, such as CAMHS.
