DR DERVILLA GEV

I am a clinical psychologist with over 12 years experience working in the field of mental health. I work with adults (18+), presenting with a range of psychological difficulties including anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, personality difficulties, stress and adjustment problems. 

​

I bring a curious, collaborative and non-judgemental stance to my work and endeavour to create a safe therapeutic space for individuals to reflect on, and explore their psychological world. As a psychologist I believe in the importance of individuals reflecting on what is going on in their own minds and in also reflecting on what might be going on in the minds of others. This can help facilitate greater cognitive flexibility which can relieve distress. 

​

I draw from a number of therapeutic modalities including Mentalisation Based Treatment (MBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and self-compassion and mindfulness. My work is also informed by psychodynamic principles. I am a registered MBT practitioner.
 
I also enjoy working with family members of people with mental health difficulties and welcome people from the LGBTIQ+ communities.
