I am a child and adolescent psychiatrist who has worked in a Consultation Liaison mental health team in a tertiary children’s hospital for 20 years. I am passionate about building relationships and using communication as a bridge between the worlds of physical and mental health. Particular areas of interest include Functional Somatic Symptoms, Persistent Pain, Home Ventilation and Parent-Infant Mental Health. When not at work I love to spend time in the outdoors, hiking, scrambling up mountains and just being in nature.
