Additional Information: I have 35 years of experience in the mental health field as a nurse, social worker, trainer, advocate, and researcher. I was a Lecturer in Mental Health at the University of Sheffield for ten years after being awarded a PhD in Psychotherapy Studies in 1998, and then a Post-Graduate Diploma in Education (E-Learning) in 2005, both from the University of Sheffield in the UK.
