Biography

I am an HCPC registered Counselling Psychologist and Lecturer in Counselling Psychology at the Manchester Institute of Education. I am also the associate Placement Director for the Doctorate in Counselling Psychology.

My commitment to the field extends beyond academia. I am actively involved in a community pain management service within the NHS, where I deliver psychological interventions for individuals and groups. This ensures that my teaching is always grounded in practical application.

Teaching

I teach on the Doctorate in Counselling Psychology and lead the year 2 unit ‘Working in Different Modalities and Across the Lifespan in Counselling Psychology’. I also deliver teaching on the ‘Formulation in Counselling Psychology’ and ‘Cognitive Behavioural Counselling Psychology Theory and Practice’ units.
