Rajan Sandrasegaram Consultant Psychiatrist Chelmsford – About Me

Rajan Sandrasegaram Consultant Psychiatrist Chelmsford is a name trusted by individuals seeking experienced and compassionate mental health care. I have worked as a full-time consultant psychiatrist in and around London for over six years. My psychiatric training and qualifications were completed entirely in the UK, which has equipped me with a solid foundation in modern psychiatric practice.

I have served both in-patient wards and community mental health teams within the NHS. Presently, I work as a full-time substantive consultant psychiatrist in a general adult community mental health team for an NHS trust in London. This dual experience helps me manage a wide range of psychiatric conditions while adapting to various care settings.

Extensive Clinical Expertise and Focus Areas

My clinical interests include treating patients affected by migration-related mental health issues, trauma, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). I earned an MSc in War and Psychiatry from King’s College London, further enhancing my ability to support those affected by conflict and displacement.

Furthermore, I offer support to individuals dealing with a variety of challenges, such as adjustment disorder, OCD, personality disorders, and phobias. My work always focuses on tailored treatment, evidence-based care, and compassionate engagement.

Medical Education and Supervision

In addition to clinical practice, I serve as a clinical and educational supervisor for postgraduate doctors enrolled in the specialist psychiatry training scheme. I enjoy guiding the next generation of psychiatrists and fostering professional development in the field.
