Dr Adrian Falkov

Dr Adrian Falkov is a dedicated Consultant Child, Youth and Family Psychiatrist who focuses on supporting young people and their families. He specialises in assessing and treating a wide range of emotional, behavioural, and developmental challenges. Dr Falkov adopts a collaborative, strengths-based approach to mental health, working closely with children, adolescents, parents, and carers to enhance resilience, coping mechanisms, and overall family recovery.

With a deep understanding of the reciprocal relationships within families, Dr Falkov recognises that an individual's mental health significantly influences, and is influenced by, their family environment. To address this, he developed an innovative conceptual framework known as The Family Model, which helps clinicians and families understand the interplay between psychological symptoms and family relationships. His clinical practice integrates evidence-informed psychological therapies, pharmacological interventions, and lifestyle support to promote long-term recovery and relapse prevention.

Dr Falkov completed his undergraduate medical training in South Africa before moving to London to undertake his postgraduate training in Psychiatry, specialising in child and adolescent mental health. He holds a Bachelor of Science and a Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery. Dr Falkov is a Fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatrists and a Fellow of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Psychiatrists.
