Profile

I am extremely experienced consultant Psychiatrist with over 30 years’ practise in psychiatry in different settings; out-patients’ psychiatric clinics, inpatients psychiatric units, and at general hospital’s emergency departments, which provided me the opportunity to manage and treat a wide spectrum of psychiatric illnesses . I am currently running a highly regarded and a recognition-awarded psychiatric unit in the NHS.
I completed training in general adult psychiatry in the UK at the Maudsley training scheme and the south London and St. Georges training scheme ( Both are internationally recognized ) which included sub speciality training in neuropsychiatry and rehabilitation psychiatry. I am currently educational and clinical supervisor for both medical students from King’s College London medical school and junior psychiatrists from the Maudsley psychiatric training scheme.
I have special interest in treating resistant to treat bipolar disorders, chronic psychosis , depression, ADHD, Autism with comorbidity, acute psychotic illnesses, as well as common mental health problems like , stress related mental health problems, anxiety, personality disorders, psychological sexual dysfunction, psychosomatic illnesses, and PTSD. I have published studies in international psychiatric journals.
I have training and experience in neuropsychiatric consequences of neurological diseases like, traumatic brain injuries, as well as functional neurological illnesses. I have published studies in neuropsychiatry. I am also particularly interested in the effect of psychological stresses on the brain and the psycho-trauma psychiatric sequels.
I have a considerable experience in medico-legal cases, and expert opinion and witness cases.
As a specialist in rehabilitation and recovery, I believe that people can recover from mental illness to lead full, satisfying lives. I follow a holistic person centred that encourages people to make choices regarding their treatments and to select their meaningful purposes in life. At my current practice, we deliver care through; paying attention to what clients say and want, listening with fascination and respect, feeling the pain and the distress patients have, accompanied by compassionate responses and thoughtful professional support, focusing on individual strengths and abilities rather than on deficits and pathologies.
