Dr Amelia Carton

I am a qualified clinical psychologist currently working within a Paediatric Psychology Service in a central London NHS trust where I lead two services. My work mainly focusses on supporting children, young people and their families who are experiencing psychological distress, considering this in the context of the systems that they are part of (such as family, health, school or community) and providing psychological intervention based on individual needs. My priority when working with families is to co-create a non-judgemental, calm and therapeutic environment to work towards shared goals to improve wellbeing.

I offer individual and family intervention, and I have completed additional training in a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches including Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, narrative therapy and systemic therapy. Given the nature of the world that we live in, I work integratively to ensure that my approach is tailored to the needs of the person or family that I am working with.

I am fully registered with the Health and Care Professionals Council, which is the governing body for Clinical Psychologists in the UK. My registration number is PYL37283.
