Dr Vicky Cleak is a Consultant Psychiatrist trained in both general adult and liaison psychiatry. She has over two decades of experience, working in private mental healthcare and within the NHS, both as an in-patient and community consultant. This has given her a broad experience of the range of mental illnesses experienced by adults, including ADHD, depression, anxiety, bipolar affective disorder, OCD and psychosis.

Dr Cleak has particular interest and experience with Adult ADHD, both professionally and personally, and understands the widespread impact this diagnosis can have on a person's professional and family life, as well as the potentially life-changing benefits of assessment, diagnosis and treatment. She also has an interest in home neuromodulation and has training in the use of trans cranial direct stimulation (tCDS) using Flow and vagal nerve stimulation with Nurosym devices.

Dr Cleak is passionate about helping those patients whose mental health difficulties fall within the increasing gap between primary and secondary care. She seeks to think about a patient's difficulties and management from a holistic perspective and understands that the key to getting the right treatment plan for an individual is through thorough assessment and a collaborative relationship with her patients, using her experience as a coach to achieve this.

Dr Cleak has an MA in medical education, a diploma in solution-focused therapy, post-graduate diploma in neuropsychiatry and coaching qualifications. She actively seeks to remain up to date and improve, through continuous professional development and involvement in the examinations of future psychiatrists. This enables her to provide patients with the best evidence-based treatment options tailored to their difficulties.
