I'm Dr Sharon Winward, a Consultant Clinical Psychologist with over twenty years experience.

Alongside my independent practice, I also spend part of my week working in the NHS, leading a team of psychologists who work with adults accessing our community mental health teams.

I work with people with a range of difficulties across the spectrum of severity, and provide supervision and training to the staff working alongside them.

I have specialised in a number of evidence based therapies including Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and compassion based approaches.

I have an Honours Degree in Psychology: a Masters Degree in Health Psychology: a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology and a Postgraduate Diploma in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy.

I am registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and am a member of the EMDR Association UK. I have an enhanced DBS.
