I have worked with Chartered Psychologists at Kings College, London, in teaching and research of abnormal psychology, and worked in Improved Access to Psychological Treatments (IAPT) services as well as in NHS settings. In addition to working with adults, I have worked as a child and adolescent clinical psychologist in a specialist community mental health team (CAMHS). The work I did there included consulting with schools about issues such as school refusal/school phobia, working with the courts, working with educational psychologists with regard to treating children with emerging mental health problems; helping identify and treating emerging mental health problems in pre-school settings; identifying and treating emerging personality disorders; providing therapy to anxious and depressed children, providing therapy for children with ADHD, family work; hosting support groups for teenagers with Asperger's Syndrome and who suffer from tics http://www.lifespanpsychologyservices.com . I endorse family work as I have recognised through my extensive work with adults that many problems in adults stemmed from childhood. As such, I think it's highly important to work with children and their families to identify and help rectify issues that might affect and influence a child's emotional well-being in the short and longer term. Quite often, parents and siblings of affected children might also benefit from family work.
