I am a Senior Lecturer in Clinical Communication with 20 years of evidence-based, research-led teaching experience in UK medical education. I have expertise in leading, developing, coordinating, delivering and evaluating communication skills training to a variety of health care professionals and trainees across undergraduate medical schools and within postgraduate deaneries.

In addition to my work with medical students, I have also developed and facilitated clinical communication sessions for post-graduate surgical trainees, GP trainees, surgical care practitioners, medical and surgical consultants, specialist nurses, radiographers, international doctors and health psychology trainees. As a Chartered Health Psychologist (Associate Fellow, BPS), I have an interest in health behaviour change and motivational interviewing as a clinical method for working with patients who are contemplating health behaviour change. I have designed and facilitated workshops on Motivational Interviewing for a variety of healthcare professionals and students.

I am a Registered Practitioner Psychologist with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and Senior Fellow of AdvanceHE (SFHEA).
