Dr Vicky Aldridge

HCPC Registered Clinical Psychologist

I strongly believe that change and personal growth can thrive if given the best opportunity to do so through a safe therapeutic relationship. My area of Specialist Interest is Trauma, PTSD and Moral Injury.

My Experience

My career in mental health began in 2011 and I have since worked in the NHS, forensic, private and charitable sectors. I have worked across a range of mental health problems and found my passion in helping others overcome trauma. I specialise in providing clinical assessment and evidence-based interventions for trauma-related difficulties including PTSD, C-PTSD, moral injury, traumatic grief and other complex presentations.

I have extensive experience of working with veterans, the emergency services and civilian populations, and am focused on working with you to achieve the best outcomes in a way that suits your individual preferences and needs.
