Dr Kumar
Consultant Psychiatrist
Dr Sunil Kumar has extensive experience as Consultant Psychiatrist both in
NHS and within the private and independent sector.
His practice is based on ethical and values of patient centred care. DR Kumar is a member of Royal College of Psychiatrists and is on the specialist
register with the General Medical Council. He also holds a Diploma in
Clinical Psychiatry from Ireland and a certificate in Ethics from University
of Oxford.
Dr Sunil Kumar believes each person is unique and their mental health
challenges need a more empathic person-centred approach than a medical
model. As a member of British Association of Psychopharmacology, he has
strong background in psychopharmacology as well as received training in
the delivery of psychotherapeutic interventions. His clinical practice is
tailored to individual's values and context, with a combination of insight
orientated psychotherapy and complemented with appropriate medications
to help patients to cope with the mental health challenges at present but
also integrate resilience skills to sustain longer term recovery.
His primary interest includes mood disorders (Anxiety, Depression, Bipolar
Illness) and Personality disorders. He is very passionate about service
delivery challenges of the neurodevelopmental conditions, especially that
of ASD/ ADHD in adult population and its long-term impact on the people
and society. He is certified by UK Adult ADHD Network (UKAAN) in the
diagnosis and management of ADHD in Adults and also holds a Diploma in
ADHD studies.
He strongly believes the interface of newly emerging innovations in
technological fields along with the developments in Neurosciences will
revolutionise our understanding of mental health conditions and their
treatment in the coming years.
