Simon Darnley draws from his extensive experience as a therapist to tell us about how with compassion and courage we can face and overcome our fears.

I am currently the Deputy Director of the Psychological Medicine and Integrated Care Services within the South London and Maudsley Hospitals. I trained as a registered mental health nurse (RMN) in 1982, before training in behavioural therapy in 1989 and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) in 1994. I then ran the CBT course for 7 years continuing with my clinical practice treating adults in a wide range of mental health disorders with a specialist interest in Obsessional Compulsive Disorder (OCD). For many years I was principle CBT therapist and managed the Anxiety Disorders Residential Unit, ADRU (featuring in the first episode of the BAFA award-winning Channel 4 series Bedlam) a nationally funded unit that specialises in the treatment of complex OCD and BDD.
I have now seen or supervised the treatment of over 1500 people with OCD. I continue to teach and increase the understanding about different forms of OCD to many groups from 6th formers to undergraduates.
