Adult Attachment and Its Clinical Implications: Working with Attachment Dysfunction in Practice
Adult separation anxiety disorder (SEPAD) affects 6.6% of adults — more common than panic disorder or GAD — yet most clinicians miss it. Dr Vijaya Manicavasagar’s webinar and the ASA-27 screening tool walk through how adult attachment theory, SEPAD, and the therapeutic relationship intersect in clinical practice.
Webinar: Reflective Practice for Therapists: Reflection Without Self-Criticism
Does therapist self-awareness really improve client outcomes? Reflective practice is often talked about as a professional ideal, but what does it actually do for clinical work? In this webinar, Dr Shane Rogers and Belinda Seymour-Wright will explore the evidence and mechanisms by which reflective practice can enhance therapeutic effectiveness, professional growth, and clinician wellbeing.
Webinar: Improve Mental Health Outcomes with Measurement-Based Care
How can clinicians use outcomes data to improve care delivery, such as reducing waitlists or optimizing treatment? Jason J Washburn and Dr Hilah Kaufman explore practical challenges in implementing Measurement-Based Care in clinical settings, including training, workflow, and adoption.
Webinar: Enhancing Clinical Reasoning Using AI and Formulation Diagrams

Webinar: Assessing Children and Adolescents: Effective Screening and Identification
This webinar equips clinicians working with young people with practical frameworks for when to screen, what to use, and how to interpret the results in real clinical practice. Assessing children and adolescents is uniquely challenging. Presenting concerns often overlap, co-occur, or shift across contexts; parent, teacher and self-report accounts frequently diverge; and the landscape of available screening tools is broad but uneven in quality.
Bipolar Assessment Questionnaires: Screening, Diagnosis, and Routine Outcome Monitoring
Bipolar disorder is among the most frequently misdiagnosed conditions in mental health practice. Approximately one in five adults presenting to mental health services with depressive symptoms in fact have bipolar or a bipolar-related disorder. Diagnostic delays carry substantial human cost — prolonged exposure to ineffective treatments, elevated relapse risk, occupational and relational disruption, and increased suicidality.
Webinar: Artificial Intelligence and Advancements in Psychology Practice
How are emerging technologies reshaping psychological practice? AI can genuinely strengthen clinical work across assessment, treatment, documentation, and ongoing care. At the same time, this session keeps a clear focus on what technology cannot replace: the therapeutic relationship, empathy, formulation, ethical judgement, and the nuanced human skills at the heart of effective practice.
Making Psychological Therapy 10% More Effective. Every Year for a Decade.
I became a psychologist for the same reason most mental health clinicians do: to make a dent in suffering. The work was intense, and it was also deeply meaningful. Watching someone move from stuck to unstuck—from self-criticism to self-compassion, from avoidance to action—never gets old. And then, about two years ago, I made a big change.
Beyond Diagnostic Boxes: Toward a Richer Map of Mental Health
For decades, psychologists and psychiatrists have relied on the DSM to bring order to a very complex human landscape. The DSM has helped with communication, research and treatment planning. But it has also come with obvious limitations.

Dissociation in Clinical Practice: Beyond Dissociative Identity Disorder
