Our Approach
What do Clinical Psychologists do?
Clinical Psychologists are specialist mental health professionals trained to offer assessment and treatment for a wide range of emotional, physical, neuropsychological, behavioural and relational difficulties.
Who do we work with?
Clinical Psychologists are trained to support a variety of difficulties occurring across the lifespan. We work with children, young people, adults, couples, families and professionals.
How do we offer support?
Clinical Psychologists can offer support through either remote or face to face provision based the clients choice but also assessment of need. In the first instance we will invite new clients for an assessment session. During the assessment we will create a ‘formulation’ of need to guide any ongoing treatment. The formulation will inform the type of therapeutic modality offered.
How long is the support offered?
Clinical Psychologists can offer both long and short term interventions dependent on the nature of the presenting difficulty. A discussion about length of treatment is likely to occur following the assessment session.
Training and Experience
Clinical Psychologists train at Doctorate level. Our assessments and interventions are guided by up to date research and psychological theory. Clinical Psychologists often attend ongoing training as part of their professional development.
Professional Registration
Clinical Psychologists are professionally regulated by the Health Care Professions
Council (HCPC), and their training must be accredited by the British Psychological Society (BPS).
