Dr Alexandra Gregory

Educational Psychologist

BSc, PGCE, O. A. Dip, DEdPsy 

A very warm welcome and thank you for visiting my website. My name is Alex and I am an educational psychologist based in South East England. A former qualified teacher working in both mainstream and specialist schools, I now apply psychology to education to help facilitate positive change for children and young people, their families, and schools. I currently work for a local authority EP service 4 days a week and independently 1 day a week.

 

This website is focused on my independent work, where I specialise in support for siblings of children with additional needs, and in developmental trauma. My siblings work involves hosting sibling events for families (talks and workshops), and voluntary roles as a sibling research supervisor at Southampton University, and expert advisor/part of the team of contributors at Friendili (a social networking app for families of children with additional needs). In the area of developmental trauma, I am a certified NME Trainer with Sussex Psychology - a specialist therapeutic mental health service. I also volunteer as an Independent Visitor for a child looked after.
