Momentum Psychology

Compassionate, evidence-based psychology supporting sustainable change, emotional wellbeing, and long-term health

Anna Turnock | Psychologist

Are unhelpful habits and patterns of thinking getting in the way of your wellbeing and quality of life?

I help clients better understand the psychological factors that may be contributing to current challenges, including differences in thinking styles, self-talk, habits, behaviours, and patterns of attention and self-regulation. Together, we work towards meaningful, sustainable change in a way that feels realistic, compassionate, and tailored to your individual needs, strengths, and circumstances.

I provide a warm, respectful, and non-judgemental space where you can feel heard, understood, and supported. Care is collaborative and evidence-based, using practical psychological strategies to enhance emotional wellbeing, strengthen coping skills, and improve overall quality of life.

With extensive experience supporting health and behaviour change, I use evidence-based approaches to help clients build insight, develop practical strategies, and create lasting positive change.

Bariatric Psychology

I have a particular interest in the psychological and behavioural aspects of weight management, including bariatric surgery and medical weight-loss pathways, particularly how differences in thinking patterns, self-regulation, and behaviour can impact change.

I provide psychological support for clients preparing for bariatric surgery, adjusting to life after surgery, or navigating the behavioural and emotional changes that can accompany weight-loss treatment. This may include support with eating behaviours, emotional eating, body image concerns, motivation, adjustment, and differences in attention, self-regulation, or behaviour patterns that may impact lifestyle change.

My approach combines evidence-based psychological strategies with an understanding of the complex relationship between emotional wellbeing, behaviour change, individual differences, health, and lifestyle factors. I provide comprehensive pre-operative bariatric assessments and tailored ongoing support to help clients feel informed, supported, and better equipped to navigate long-term change.

ADHD Assessment

ADHD in adults often goes unrecognised for years. I support adults navigating longstanding difficulties with attention, organisation, self-regulation, and emotional regulation - often only recognised as ADHD later in life.

I provide comprehensive psychological assessment, including clinical interview, structured diagnostic assessment, developmental history, and psychometric testing, to build an accurate and individualised picture of each person's experience.

Following assessment, I provide a detailed written report and work alongside The Primrose Clinic, a psychiatrist-led telehealth practice, to support referral for psychiatric review where appropriate.
