My name is Dr Katie Pownell; I am a HCPC Registered Consultant Clinical Psychologist and hold a Professional Doctorate in Clinical Psychology (DClinPsy) from Staffordshire & Keele Universities, as well as a BSc (Hons) in Psychology from the University of Huddersfield.
I have specialist experience of working with adults who are experiencing emotional distress or mental health difficulties that are impacting on their wellbeing. I currently work as a Consultant Clinical Psychologist in Urgent Care services in the NHS. As part of this role, I lead a team of psychologists and mental health practitioners in developing and delivering psychological input for patients and staff. My previous posts have been in NHS inpatient, rehabilitation, and community mental health settings.
I offer an empathic, compassionate, and professional clinical psychology service, and work with a range of emotional, psychological, and mental health difficulties. I aim to work collaboratively with you, and draw upon a range of therapeutic approaches in doing so.
