Lucy Maddox is a consultant clinical psychologist, researcher, and accomplished author known for her dedication to sharing psychology insights.
Lucy Maddox earned her qualification as a clinical psychologist from University College London (UCL) in 2008, marking the beginning of her impressive career in the healthcare sector.
Over the course of 13 years, Lucy Maddox dedicated her talents and expertise to the NHS, predominantly specializing in adolescent inpatient settings. Her invaluable experience in this demanding field provided her with insights into the unique challenges faced by young people and their families dealing with mental health issues.
She went on to work at Action for Children, an adoption and foster agency, where she continued to make a positive impact on young lives. Her role as Senior Clinical Advisor for the British Association of Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies further exemplifies her dedication to the field.
One of her notable contributions during this time was the creation of the podcast "Let's Talk About CBT," which aimed to promote and demystify cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to a wider audience, reflecting her keen interest in science communication.
Lucy Maddox has authored several books on psychology, including Blueprint (2018) and What is Mental Health? (2020).
Her latest work, A Year to Change Your Mind (2023), is a captivating self-help book that unfolds over 12 seasonally appropriate themes. It offers readers a journey through the year, each month highlighting a particular aspect of mental health and personal growth.
Maddox's approach is rooted in the idea that clinical psychology is not limited to addressing dysfunctional situations but can also empower individuals to enhance their overall well-being.
The book provides a refreshing perspective for those who may not require extensive therapy but seek practical strategies to improve their mental and emotional balance. Lucy Maddox's down-to-earth and modest approach in the book resonates with readers, as it refrains from promising miraculous transformations or promoting unrealistic ideals.
Written during the backdrop of the pandemic, A Year to Change Your Mind exudes an aura of calm and resilience amidst global uncertainties. Lucy Maddox emerges as a reliable companion, sharing her experiences without overwhelming readers with personal details. Despite the challenges she faces working with young people in hospital settings, her writing displays empathy and kindness without creating a divide between "us and them."
Lucy Maddox currently holds a clinical academic fellowship at the University of Bath, supported by the National Institute of Health Research. She lives in Bristol.
