Frequently Asked Questions

My foundation rests on qualifications in Health Psychology, ensuring that you receive advice grounded in scientific understanding and evidence-based methodologies. Not only that, I understand the importance of practical, realistic solutions. I'm here to empower you with actionable steps that seamlessly integrate into your lifestyle. No fads, no shortcuts – just sustainable, lasting change. 

Health psychologists specialise in the psychology of health, wellbeing and illness. We are interested in how people think, feel and act when it comes to their health, and are committed to using our skills and knowledge to support people’s health and wellbeing. 

Different health psychologists will specialise in different aspects of health. My main focus is working with people to protect and promote their health and wellbeing, by helping people with behaviours that can support health like eating well and exercising. Some health psychologists support people to manage the impact of living with long-term health conditions. Other health psychologists work to improve the healthcare system, for example by providing training to healthcare professionals on better ways to communicate with patients.

As health psychologists, although we focus more on physical health and wellbeing, we’re really interested in how physical and mental health interact. For example, we explore the ways that our physical health impacts our mental health or how people cope living with health conditions, symptoms and side effects. We also consider the ways our mental health can impact on our physical health either more directly or indirectly via changing behaviours.

So I like to envisage health psychology as a sort of bridge between physical and mental health. We're not medically trained like physical health specialists and we don't diagnose conditions or prescribe medications. We also don't (generally) delve into the direct treatment of mental health issues in the way that clinical psychologists, or other therapists or counsellors do. We sit somewhere in between and consider the broad picture, using psychology to understand and improve people's health and wellbeing, and healthcare systems.

Yes. Although there may be some exceptional circumstances in which I may not be able to keep to this. This is if I believe you or someone else may be at risk of harm, or if I become aware of any illegal activity. Wherever I can, I would discuss this with you before taking action. This will be explained before you begin.

No, unfortunately not. Clients must be 18 years or older.
