Consultants - Dr Nora Gribbin, MB BCh BAO, MRCPsych, DipCBT(oxf)

Consultant Psychiatrist

I am a Consultant Psychiatrist in Adult and Liaison Psychiatry, and a Member of the Royal College of Psychiatrists (RCPsych). I have further qualifications as a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist and I am registered with the British Association of Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapists (BABCP).

Speciality

I am a Consultant Psychiatrist with expertise in a broad range of Psychological Conditions in Adults.

My clinical expertise includes stress, anxiety and mood disorders, trauma, psychosis, alcohol addictions and medically unexplained symptoms. In addition I provide assessments and management of many other psychological conditions. I can also provide Medico-legal reports.

I believe in a holistic approach to an individual within the framework of a warm and caring professional relationship.

I offer assessment with management tailored to the needs of the individual to include medication management and psychotherapy, both individual CBT and (systemic) family therapy. I can provide outpatient appointments and follow-up care.

A dual qualification in Medicine and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy places me in a unique position to provide a comprehensive initial assessment for Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, which is usually required by the leading medical insurance agencies. I can then also deliver a course of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.

Consultant Appointment

Since January 2000 I have worked as an NHS Consultant Psychiatrist & Honorary Senior Lecturer at South West London & St George’s Mental Health NHS Trust, London. In 2006 I worked as a Liaison Psychiatrist at the interface of medical and psychological symptoms at Kingston Hospital NHS Trust.

Training

I graduated in Medicine from The Queen’s University of Belfast in 1984. My post graduate training, in all subspecialties of Psychiatry, was gained at Fulbourn Hospital, Cambridge, St George’s Hospital, London, and Manchester Royal Infirmary. In 1990 I worked for 2 years in Liaison Psychiatry and Chronic Pain in Auckland hospitals, New Zealand. Research interests include the Carers in the Community Care for mental illness, and psychological manifestations of physical illness.

Private outpatient appointments are available on request.
