My name is Catherine Dobson,

BA MSc Dip Clin Psychol C Psychol

I am a Chartered Psychologist, registered with the Health and Care Professions Council. I have over 35 years’ experience of providing psychological therapy with people with mental health conditions. After working for many years as a clinical psychologist in the NHS, I worked with people referred to me who were experiencing mental health difficulties in the workplace. My approach has been to focus on creating situations whereby people can perform at their best. This means paying attention to what works best for each individual, what energises them, so they can begin to overcome their own limitations.

As a former swimming coach and sailing instructor, I became aware that enjoyment, achievement and wellbeing are linked together. I can help identify goals, re-connect with strengths and re-invigorate performance.
