About Madeleine
Chartered Clinical Psychologist and BABCP Accredited CBT Therapist
As an experienced Chartered Clinical Psychologist, Madeleine is trained to use a wide range of therapeutic approaches for a variety of mental health problems. Having undertaken further Postgraduate training in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), Madeleine’s main therapeutic approaches include Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and other evidence-based approaches. Regardless of therapeutic approach taken, Madeleine embraces working flexibly with each individual to ensure that the chosen therapy approach best suits his or her needs and preferences.
Since qualifying, Madeleine has specialised in working with adults and older adolescents presenting with eating disorders and associated problems, including Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating Disorder, ARFID, Over-Eating and Obesity. She has worked in a variety of NHS settings including Specialist Community Eating Disorder Services (Hertfordshire, Norfolk) and Outpatient, Day-patient and Inpatient Services (London), working with individuals, couples and families at different stages of their journey and lifespan. Although primarily delivering evidence-based approaches, this inevitably involves being responsive to each individual’s notion of recovery, often including a focus on wider issues such as improved quality of lived experience, relationships and communication with others.
Madeleine also has substantial experience of working with co-existing problems such as low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, perfectionism, OCD and trauma. As a BABCP accredited practitioner, she can offer treatment interventions specially tailored to each of these difficulties. When working with co-existing or complex problems, the importance of adopting a person-centred approach is emphasised, with the aim of fostering a strong and collaborative working relationship within which to agree and address difficulties together.
In addition to her clinical work, Madeleine is an accredited BABCP supervisor and is regularly involved in the teaching, training and supervision of others. As well as contributing to the eating disorders research field with a number of publications, including co-authorship of an eating disorders treatment manual, she regularly teaches on Clinical Psychology Doctorate teaching programmes in the UK and has held academic / teaching roles at the Universities of East Anglia, Hertfordshire and Sheffield. Madeleine’s clinical research interests include developing service initiatives and treatments to increase accessibility and reduce waiting times, whilst still achieving good treatment outcomes.
