About me

Dr Chloe Allen, Educational Psychologist

I am a fully qualified Educational Psychologist registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC). I have worked with children and young people for more than ten years now. I have worked as an Educational Psychologist in a Local Authority Educational Psychology Service. In my 10 years there, I held the posts of Specialist Educational Psychologist and Senior Educational Psychologist. I also supported the Doctoral training course for Educational Psychologists at the University of Southampton as a Field Tutor and as a supervisor for trainees. I now work solely in private practice.

Educational Psychologist Assessment

I work with children and young people from preschool age upwards. Where possible I like to be able to see them within their learning environment, discuss their development with parents/carers and teachers and carry out a range of direct work with the child or young person. I draw upon a wide range of assessment tools and techniques and psychological theory. I am happy to work with preschools, maintained schools, Academies, Independent schools and colleges.

I am committed to being an advocate for the needs of the child or young person and work in a collaborative way to achieve this outcome. I am interested in understanding how all of the different experiences of a child or young person are interacting with their environment and the child themselves to have an impact on their development.
