General Psychologist

Nicola Gates

I have a thirty-year career in psychology and have moved into perinatal mental health as I believe it is vitally important to support parents to support their children. I also agree with the saying that it takes a village to raise a child, and I am part of that village. I have two adult children, two rescue pets, and I love gardening.
