Dr Sam Blackburn
As a registered Chartered Clinical Psychologist and I have worked in mental health for over 10 years in the NHS and currently work with Severe and Enduring Mental Health Difficulties (including Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, Psychosis, OCD and Personality Disorders). However, I work trans-diagnostically, meaning I think about the individual and not just a diagnosis, and have experience of working with a variety of difficulties and symptoms.
​
I am registered with both HCPC (Number: PYL31332) and the BPS (Number: 252244). I am also a member of EMDR UK.
