Charlotte Mackintosh

Senior Lecturer

Health, Education, Policing and Sciences

I am a BABCP qualified CBT therapist since 2016. I have been fortunate to work in a variety of settings including Primary and Secondary care, Forensic and the Charity sector. I am trained in EMDR, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Compassion Focussed Therapy (CFT).  My clinical experience has led me to work closely with the Armed forces and veterans care, specialising in combat PTSD. Alongside my work at Staffordshire University I also work as a CBT Therapist and clinical supervisor within NHS IAPT service.
