Dr Dorothy Szinay

Health Psychologist, Researcher & Consultant

A woman with curly brown hair wearing a blue sweater, looking at the camera with a neutral expression against a plain beige background.

My work is about understanding people in context — not as problems to be fixed, but as people shaped by experiences, environments, systems, relationships and opportunities.

As an HCPC-registered Health Psychologist, I work across research, evaluation, behaviour change consultancy, therapy, and supervision and mentoring for health psychologists.

Across these areas, I aim to make psychological science useful, compassionate and practical — helping individuals, professionals and organisations move from complexity to clearer understanding, better support and meaningful action.

How I can help

  • An indoor office space with large floor-to-ceiling windows, a tall potted plant, a laptop on a long wooden table, and white chairs, with city buildings visible outside.

    Research, Evaluation and Behaviour Change Consultancy

    Consultancy for organisations developing, improving or evaluating services, programmes, digital tools or interventions that aim to support health, wellbeing, prevention, health promotion or behaviour change.

    This can include intervention development, evaluation, applied research, training, strategic advisory work, retainer support and fractional behavioural science leadership.

    Research and Evaluation
  • A cozy living room with two mustard-yellow armchairs facing each other, a potted Monstera plant in between, white curtains in the background, and soft lighting from two tall floor lamps.

    Supervision and Mentoring

    Reflective, psychologically informed supervision and mentoring for practitioners, trainees, coaches, researchers and professionals working in health, psychology, behaviour change, neurodiversity or wellbeing-related roles.

    This can support professional development, confidence, boundaries, reflective practice and working with complexity.

    Supervision and Mentoring
  • A cozy modern interior with sunlight casting shadows on a gray armchair, a wooden table with a glass of water, a tissue box, and documents. A white windowsill holds a glass bowl with apples and a potted plant.

    Therapy and Coaching

    Psychological therapy and coaching for neurodivergent adults, including people with ADHD or autism, and for couples where neurodivergence is part of the relationship.

    This work can support emotional well-being, self-understanding, relationships, confidence, burnout, anxiety, long-term health conditions and everyday coping.
