In addition to be trained at doctoral level in mainstream models of therapy such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy CBT and psychodynamic and psychotherapeutic models, Elaine is also trained in Dialectical Behavioural Therapy DBT. DBT is a highly specialised model of therapy which was originally used with Personality Disorder (Elaine previously worked in a Specialist Psychology Service for People with Personality Disorders) but is now successfully used for other conditions. There is a ‘skills component’ in DBT; mindfulness, interpersonal effectiveness, distress tolerance and emotion regulation. Elaine often uses this background to help the individual remain calm and in control of their mind and body and to negotiate their day-to-day interpersonal relationships successfully.
It was during her time working within the DBT model that Elaine became interested in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (as it is a core skill in DBT) and now incorporates much of this into her practice.
Elaine has also undertaken further post-doctoral training relating to her discipline
