I am a child and adolescent psychiatrist who has worked with children and young people for many years, initially within the NHS and more recently within the Priory Group. I enjoy working with young people helping them to understand their mental health problems or neurodevelopmental disorders and hence supporting them back to good health or to manage their conditions appropriately.
