Dr Anna Field

Dr Anna Field is a highly skilled consultant child and adolescent psychiatrist with over 20 years of experience, primarily gained through her work as a doctor in the NHS, where she still practises as a consultant alongside her work with Clinical Partners.

Starting as a junior doctor on a paediatric training scheme, Dr Field was drawn to psychiatry through her interest in the emotional impact of physical illness and the behavioural barriers to recovery. Today, Dr Field continues to help children and adolescents manage and overcome various complex challenges, including neurodevelopmental disorders.

She is driven to help young people improve their wellbeing and reach their full potential, and works to help children and families understand their difficulties before creating steps to move forward. This may include diagnosis, treatment recommendations, or helping clients identify strengths within themselves.

I cannot thank Anna enough for what she has done for us as a family and for my daughter. Without her, I'm not sure what we would have done. The calls each week pushed us and comforted us at the same time. She is a very skilled and knowledgeable doctor, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.
