I am a Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist in Cambridge.

I offer assessment and treatment for children and young people and support for their families. 

 

I practice in a child and family-friendly way with a focus on strengths and resources. I work collaboratively with children, young people and their families to help them to make sense of the difficulties and to find ways forward.

 

I see children and young people under the age of 18 with emotional, behavioural, neuro-developmental, or relationship problems and offer diagnostic assessment and treatment of children and young people with possible:

 

• depression

• anxiety

• OCD

• tics and Tourette's syndrome

• PTSD

• ADHD/ADD

• eating disorders

• ASD-related problems, but I do not offer diagnostic ASD assessments

• gender dysphoria

• unexplained medical symptoms

• functional disorders

 

In addition, I offer: 

• family consultations

• liaison with other professionals involved

• joint working with other professionals if needed

 

Please note that I do not offer an emergency service. Nor do I see children/young people with serious suicidal thoughts or severe psychotic symptoms. These children are better treated in the NHS, where there is access to admission if needed.
