My name is Dr Joanna Ringrose. I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist. I have over 20 years’ experience working in Clinical Psychology within the NHS, with an extensive background in Adult Mental Health and more recently as a Clinical Lead within Adolescent and Young Adult Mental Health NHS Services. I specialise in psychological therapy and intervention with adults and older adolescents. I am highly experienced in working with trauma alongside many years of working with the full spectrum of depression, anxiety, adjustment and emotion regulation difficulties.

Since qualifying as a Clinical Psychologist (University College London), I have undertaken additional substantive training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). I hold a post-graduate Certificate in CBT, I am a qualified CAT Practitioner and I am also trained in EMDR. I have comprehensive experience of Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) Skills delivery.

I have wide experience of individual, group and family intervention, consultation, supervision and teaching, drawing on a broad range of specialist models (CBT, CAT, EMDR, DBT, ACT). I take care to select and combine appropriate therapeutic models to develop a treatment plan which is uniquely tailored to the needs and preferences of the individual.

I am a highly experienced trainer and consultant, both to organisations and professionals but also families and members of the public regarding mental health and promoting psychological health and wellbeing. I am a published researcher.

I am registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC), the British Psychological Society (BPS) and the Association of Cognitive Analytic Therapy (ACAT).

I welcome clients for face-to-face sessions in clinics in Ipswich and Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, UK. I am also able to offer online sessions via Zoom or MS Teams across the UK.

I am registered with the following insurers: AXA-PPP, Vitality, AVIVA, CIGNA, HEALIX Healthcare Service and Simply Health. I am also recognised by TRICARE for USAF staff, dependents and retirees.
