Dr Ashley Scott
Clinical Psychologist
Hello, my name is Ashley and I’m a Clinical Psychologist registered with the HCPC. As well as private practice, I have over ten years of experience working in the NHS with various client groups. My work is guided by compassion, curiosity and a belief that therapy should move at a pace that feels right for each individual. I aim to work alongside people, creating a safe and collaborative space in which they feel understood and supported. I tailor interventions to each person’s individual needs and circumstances, drawing on a range of therapeutic approaches to support meaningful and lasting change. Above all, I strive to build a trusting therapeutic relationship where people feel heard and able to explore their experiences without judgement.
Therapeutic approaches that I use are:
· Cognitive Behavioural Therapy
