DR RAVI GILL
Hi I’m Dr. Ravi Gill, an accomplished health psychologist with over 15 years of experience in the field of mental health. My journey began with a passion for understanding the complexities of the human mind and helping individuals navigate their emotional landscapes. Throughout my career I have specialised in various areas of psychology, including the impact of physical health conditions, memory and more recently trauma.
My holistic approach to psychology reflects my belief in the importance of addressing mental health within the context of a person's whole life.

Specializations and Community Engagement
--------------------------------------------------------
Throughout my career, I have worked with diverse client groups in various settings, including early intervention services, adult mental health, and older adults, both in the private sector and the NHS. I have a particular interest in working with people who have a dual diagnosis of mental health and physical health complexities. I have designed and delivered interventions to professionals to improve the physical health outcomes of individuals with a mental health diagnosis.
Within NHS community services, I have provided psychological therapy to the older adult population facing anxiety, depression, and cognitive impairment. Alongside my clinical work, I regularly provide training to organizations on topics such as mental health awareness, mental health crisis management, and stress management. I am also an active volunteer with charitable organizations, offering support to individuals experiencing emotional distress.
Additionally, I am trained in the administration, scoring, and interpretation of various assessment tools to support my work and ensure effective treatment planning and intervention.
