TIM SWEENEY

I am the MBCT clinical lead for Nottinghamshire Healthcare Trust. This post involves coordinating and delivering training and supervision of MBCT to IAPT and Secondary Care staff, who work with people experiencing a diverse range of health problems. I have run MBCT groups in primary care and specialist mental health services since 2008. In addition to running clinical groups I deliver MBCT for staff in local Health Services. In 2016 I completed a PhD with Nottingham University focusing on the role of mindfulness in depression and since then have been actively involved in research. I am an associate teacher, trainer and supervisor with the Oxford Mindfulness Centre. This role includes working as a tutor on the Masters Degree in MBCT and delivering training in the UK and internationally.
