Dr Ellie Bishop

Biography

I am an HCPC registered Highly Specialist Clinical Psychologist. I completed my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology at University College London and have been working with children, adolescents and adults in NHS Eating Disorder Services since.

approach to treatment

I work primarily with children and young adults, both individually and with their families. I predominantly work from CBT or systemic therapeutic models. I feel passionately that everyone should be treated as an individual and as such, I always aim to tailor therapy specifically to a client’s needs whilst being guided by the evidence around the most effective treatments. I hope that I create a warm and empathic environment in sessions, and a space where people feel listened to and supported to work towards meaningful change.

areas of interest / specialism

I have a longstanding interest in eating behaviours and the relationship we all have with food, weight and shape. I have a particular interest in the relationship between eating disorders and neurodiversity, and how we can support neurodiverse individuals to access therapy where needed. Alongside my work at the London Centre, I work as a Principal Clinical Psychologist in an NHS Eating Disorder Service in Kent, including leading our all-age ARFID pathway.
