About me

Alice is a warm and open practitioner who believes in using evidence-based practice in order to help people explore relationships, emotions, experiences and how acceptance and change can be possible. Therapy is tailored to each individual and she works with people collaboratively to make sense of their experiences, explore how these have emerged over time and to enable people to learn skills to effectively manage their emotions in order to bring about meaningful change. Dr Alice Weaver gained her doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the University of Exeter. She also has completed the South West Foundation Course in Group Analysis and has completed her training as a Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) practitioner. She works within an Adult Mental Health service in the NHS providing assessment and therapeutic intervention to adults with a wide variety of mental health difficulties including severe depression, anxiety, personality disorder and has a particular interest in trauma-focused therapy and relational work. Previously she has worked in health psychology within a multi-disciplinary team with a wide variety of medical professionals. As part of that role, she provided therapy for psychological difficulties associated with physical health conditions and also worked within a weight management service. She has experience of co-facilitating a number of different groups in various settings including reflective-practice groups for NHS staff. Alice has also co-written several academic papers and has taught on the PGDip Psychological Therapies Practice at the University of Exeter.
