About

Hello! I am a Principal Clinical Psychologist and Accredited VIG Supervisor with a passion for supporting professionals in the early years sector. My focus is entirely on workforce development, high-quality training, and maintaining excellent practice standards across our community.

Alongside offering private VIG training and supervision, I love helping other practitioners grow through my leadership and assessment roles. I am the Programme Lead for the CYP PT Infant and Early Years Practitioner Training at the Psychological Therapies Training Centre. I also help uphold AVIGUk standards by serving as a First Marker for Advanced Practitioner VIG tape submissions.

I really enjoy supporting professionals at all stages of their VIG journey. Whether you are looking for training, supervision or consultation for your team, please feel free to reach out—I would love to connect!
