I originally trained as an integrative psychotherapist and qualified as a CAT Practitioner in 2001. I went on to be accredited as a CAT Psychotherapist, and am also an accredited supervisor and trainer. I’ve been a lead trainer for the CAT North/Catalyse Practitioner Training for more than a decade. I also provide supervision for Practitioner Trainees and for IRRAPT trainees. I run introductory CAT workshops to a range of professionals each year. I’ve been a past chair of ACAT’s Training Committee, a past chair of the Catalyse Executive, and since August 2021 I jointly co-chair the Catalyse Executive alongside Dawn Bennett. I’m particularly interested in how CAT provides a framework for the early formulation of complexity, and uses of the therapeutic relationship.
