Dr Stewart Blake

About

I am a Chartered Psychologist with the British Psychological Society and have a doctorate in Psychotherapeutic and Counselling Psychology from the University of Surrey. Prior to this qualification I was awarded a Bachelor of Science (First Class Honours) degree in Psychology with Clinical Psychology from the University of Kent.

I have a wide range of experience working within a number of Community Mental Health Teams and Psychological Services Departments for the Kent and Medway NHS Foundation Trust. These roles involved working with a broad spectrum of psychological distress ranging from mild to severe and enduring.

As well as my NHS experience I have worked within a private psychology practice specialising in a full range of medico legal assessment and treatment services including child protection, care proceedings and private law throughout southern England.

In a voluntary capacity I continue to provide psychotherapy for local charities and have in the past developed training and workshop programs for counsellors and psychotherapists in training. I have acted as an associate lecturer and researcher at university level and remain active in researching the impact of mindfulness meditation on anxiety disorders.
