Biography

If you are interested in TEAMS (Think Effectively About Mood Swings) - the new cognitive therapy for bipolar disorders and you live in the Greater Manchester area, please email me.

The current focus of my research, teaching and clinical work is three-fold: (1) CBT for mood swings and 'bipolar disorder' (2) Transdiagnostic approaches to CBT and related psychological therapies, including the use of Perceptual Control Theory and Method of Levels (3) CBT Delivery issues including self-help for fear, phobias and anxiety. In essence, my current aims are (1) to help apply CBT to people with mood swings who often receive a diagnosis of bipolar disorder and, with my colleagues, to develop a strong and ongoing empirical basis for this approach; (2) to identify the core process or processes that are addressed in CBT, regardless of any specific 'diagnosis', and use Perceptual Control Theory (PCT) to try to explain these processes and address them as efficiently as possible; and (3) to widen the accessibility of the science and practice of CBT at the health professional, service user, public health, and undergraduate psychology levels.... So, how did I get to this point?...

I began my research career in 1994 with a D.Phil on cognitive processes in social anxiety and social phobia at the Department of Psychiatry, University of Oxford, under the supervision of David M. Clark and Anke Ehlers. I followed up my work on social anxiety in a post-doctorate appointment at the same department. During this time I broadened my interest in cognitive behavioural processes across a range of psychological disorders, and became involved in more integrative approaches to psychopathology (e.g. self-regulation theory; selection theory; attachment theory). 

In 2000 I commenced a doctorate in Clinical Psychology at the Institute of Psychiatry, University of London. During this time I began to develop my work on cognitive behavioural processes in bipolar disorder, working closely with Dominic Lam. At the same time, I worked on a collaborative project with Allison Harvey, Ed Watkins and Roz Shafran to provide an overview of the core cognitive behavioural processes that are implicated in maintaining symptoms across a wide range of psychological disorders - the 'transdiagnostic approach'. The end product of this effort, a book published by Oxford University Press, appeared in 2004.

In 2004 I began work on the cognitive processes in bipolar disorder, culminating in our integrative cognitive model (Mansell, Morrison, Reid, Lowens, & Tai, 2007) that is being evaluated in research studies, clinical practice and a case series. To date, the hypotheses generated by the model are supported by at least 20 published research studies. I am now liaising with Greater Manchester West Mental Health Trust to begin a pilot randomised controlled trial of the therapy - TEAMS (Think Effectively About Mood Swings) - supported by NIHR.

Since June 2005, I have been based at the University of Manchester, where I work as a Reader. Since 2008, I have joined the Salford Primary Care Mental Health Service on an honorary basis, where I deliver and evaluate Method of Levels cognitive therapy (based on PCT) for clients who present with a diverse range of presenting problems. The therapy helps the client to direct their awareness to the source of their presenting problem and facilitates their own independent problem-solving. The therapy can be carried out with little formal assessment, and on an immediate booking basis, for as long as the client requires. Alongside Dr Sara Tai, I am involved in training Method of Levels cognitive therapy to a range of health professionals.
