Let's Connect (478) 569-2513
I am a licensed psychologist accepting teletherapy patients from all areas of Georgia. In-office patients will be seen at St Simons Psychiatry. I work with all ages incorporating mental, physical and spiritual factors. Therapy with children and teens typically involves better communication with parents and parenting help. Areas of expertise are mood, anxiety, ADD/ADHD, behavior problems, autism, chronic pain, stress and anger management.
My specialty is Behavioral Medicine which combines the knowledge of physiology, behavior and emotions in order to fully understand each patient. I often consult with my patients' medical doctor especially if the prescription of medicine is involved. My training is in psychology and physiology and I have worked closely with medical doctors and hospitals.
I was born and educated in England. I studied under the supervision of Professor Alan Clarke, then President of The British Psychological Society and Professor Jasper Brener, then President of The American Society for Psychophysiological Research. My Postdoctoral Fellowship in Behavioral Medicine was in Atlanta under the supervision of Emory University Professors.
