I am a Consultant Clinical Psychologist based in Oxford, leading psychological services for the Spires Cleft Centre across Oxford and Salisbury. I provide specialist input throughout the cleft care pathway, supporting children, young people, and families from diagnosis through to transition into adulthood.
In addition to my cleft work, I lead the psychology provision for the Oxford Craniofacial Unit and the Oxford Facial Palsy Unit. I am BABCP-accredited and integrate cognitive behavioural approaches into my clinical practice where appropriate.
I also serve as Lead for Research Quality Enhancement and Continuing Professional Development at the Oxford Institute of Clinical Psychology Training and Research (a partnership between Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust and the University of Oxford). Alongside clinical work, I contribute to service development and multidisciplinary team consultation, with research interests in psychosocial adjustment, identity development, and patient experience in cleft and craniofacial care.
