Description

Dr Chloe Gibbons – Clinical Psychologist – London

Dr Chloe Gibbons is a Clinical Psychologist at Harwood Child Psychology in London, specialising in neurodevelopmental and emotional well‑being services for children, adolescents, and families. She earned her BSc (Hons) in Psychology at the University of Bristol and completed her Doctorate in Clinical Psychology at University College London (UCL). Moreover, she registers with the Health and Care Professions Council and holds Chartered status with the British Psychological Society. Through both NHS CAMHS roles and private neurodevelopmental clinics, she developed extensive expertise in autism assessments, cognitive evaluations, and trauma support. Consequently, she combines rigorous academic training with practical insight to deliver high‑quality care.

Furthermore, Dr Gibbons works in a specialist trauma service alongside her private practice. She conducts thorough assessments, formulations, and therapeutic interventions in a warm, compassionate environment. She also excels at engaging young people who initially find trusting professionals difficult. Therefore, every client benefits from her ability to build rapport quickly and to tailor her approach to individual needs. In addition, she draws on a range of evidence‑based models—including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Compassion‑Focused Therapy (CFT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), systemic, trauma‑focused, and narrative approaches—to support meaningful change.

Additional Information

Harwood Child Psychology hosts weekly multidisciplinary case‑review meetings, where clinicians across psychiatry, speech and language therapy, and occupational therapy share insights. As a result, each care plan benefits from diverse expertise and the very latest best practices. Moreover, the practice offers both in‑person consultations at four London clinics (Hampstead Garden Suburb, Harley Street, Chiswick, King’s Cross) and secure remote sessions via an encrypted online portal. Consequently, families choose the format that best fits their schedules.

In addition, the clinic employs digital pre‑consultation questionnaires and outcome‑tracking tools to maximise direct therapeutic time. Therefore, Dr Gibbons can focus immediately on core clinical concerns rather than administrative tasks. Furthermore, Harwood Child Psychology organises periodic community workshops on positive behaviour support, emotional regulation, and school transitions. These events empower both families and local professionals with actionable strategies.
