I have been a Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist for 22 years. I also work as a Psychotherapist. I bring longevity and a range of skills and training to my work and I am realistic about the help I can deliver. I also think the working relationship with my patients and their families is the key to effective treatment, and endeavour to collaborate with my patients and other professionals.
