Educational Psychology - Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Bristol, Bath and Avon

I am a chartered educational psychologist working with children and young adults of all ages. I am based in Cornwall and take clients from all over the South West - Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Bristol, Bath and Avon.

I have been in public and private practice for nearly 20 years. I now work individually with private clients, but have worked with the NHS, various local education authorities, a wide range of schools, colleges and other educational establishments.

I carry out educational and psychological assessments across the full age range, from young children to adults. I routinely carry out these assessments in clients' homes and at weekends, so that youngsters do not have to miss school and adults do not have to take time off work. Assessments help to identify difficulties in learning and adjustment to learning situations, and thus enable advice to be given on the practical support which might be most appropriate. They can provide information in the following areas:

I hope that this website will be both informative and accessible and I aim to give you a clear picture of my range of professional expertise. Please see My Services for some more information about the aims of educational psychology assessment, how assessments are made and some of the issues in which assessment can help.

I would be pleased to hear from you for an informal discussion and further details. Please contact me here.
