Psychologists Beddington Corner

Our clinical psychologist, Dr Tamara Russell, is a martial artist and mindfulness trainer.  She works as an academic and clinician, exploring the use of mindfulness to help individuals respond more skilfully to challenging emotional material. She is the creator of the Body In Mind Training Framework, a body-based mindfulness training which allows individuals to become more in tune with bodily reactions and responses, increasing awareness and promoting mental and physical well-being. She has delivered Body In Mind Training across a number of NHS Trusts as well as to health care workers internationally. Her academic work focuses on the evaluation of adaptations of mindfulness for different clinical groups including eating disorders and bipolar illness and healthcare staff.   She offers mindfulness therapy and one to one work.  In this work, mindfulness is used to get to the heart of the matter. Working with this technique, it is possible to quickly see the habits of mind that are keeping you stuck and preventing you from thriving. Usually the sessions are 1 hour duration and between 6-8 sessions of training are recommended.  The first few appointments are used to do a thorough assessment of your needs which will then drive the thinking about the approach and techniques that will work best for you. The initial assessment takes 1.5 hours and costs £150. The length of subsequent sessions will be agreed during the initial consultation.
