About
Nearly 25 years of experience in psychiatry has helped me develop into an accomplished consultant psychiatrist. I work in both hospital and community mental health settings within the private sector and NHS, and I look after inpatients as well as outpatients in general adult psychiatry. I manage a range of conditions, from anxiety, depression and psychosis, through to more complex trauma-related cases with neurodivergent backgrounds.
I am also an expert psychiatric adviser for a global health insurance company, offering second opinions and advising on mental health care policies, as well as education and training of staff. I am passionate about digital health and have been involved in pioneering work for a leading health tech company offering smart phone consultations, which are very popular these days.
