Anna Knight

I have worked in the field of psychology for over 10 years, mainly within the NHS, predominantly in adult mental health, long-term health conditions, learning disabilities and neurodiversity.

I have worked in the field of PBS for 5 years, gaining my BTEC Level 5 in PBS (2022), which builds on my MSc Foundations of Clinical Psychology (2012) and BSc Psychology and Statistics. More recently I also completed my PG Cert in Low Intensity Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (2023).

I have been a keen advocate and leader for those in very challenging situations throughout my career and I aspire to create hope and generate solutions in very demanding circumstances.  Prior to working in the field of psychology, I served in the British Army as an Army Officer. During this time, I did various leadership and management roles both in the UK, Germany and on Operations, including Iraq, Cyprus with the United Nations and running a Fire Station during the Fireman Strikes.  These experiences have help me support large staff teams within the NHS to implement PBS in very challenging situations and work alongside children, adults with learning difficulties, families, and staff compassionately to produce meaningful outcomes.

I also have a keen interest in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness having completed training in the past, weaving elements into my practice to support clients as needed.

Outside of work, when not an Uber driver to my 2 teenagers, I can be found at Crossfit, yoga or enjoying nature with my Labrador.
