I welcome to let's talk about CBT- Research Matters, the podcast that explores some of the latest research published in the BABCP journals with me Steph Curnow. Each episode, I'll be talking to a recently published author about their research, what was the motivation behind it and how they hope it will impact the world of CBT. Today, I'm talking to Dr Liz Marks. Liz is a Guest Editor for our upcoming special issue “CBT in a time of climate and biodiversity crises”, which will be published later this summer in the Cognitive Behaviour Therapist. Steph: Hi, Liz, welcome to the podcast. Liz: Hi Steph. Thank you so much for having me on your podcast today. Steph: You're welcome. So, before we get into the episode, would you tell us a bit about who you are and the work that you do? Liz: Yeah, sure. So, I'm a senior lecturer at the University of Bath and I'm also a clinical psychologist, so I teach clinical psychology, but I also do a lot of research into relevant aspects of psychology and particularly CBT. So I'm also an accredited CBT therapist, I'm an MBCT trained mindfulness teacher and my work sort of covers all of those different aspects, both clinically and in terms of research. Steph: So we're talking today, not just about one paper, but we're actually talking about several papers, which make the upcoming special issue in the Cognitive Behaviour Therapist. So this is a special issue on climate change, which you guest edit alongside Mandy Cole. Can you tell me a little bit about how the idea for the special issue came around? Liz: Yeah, it's, it's really, interesting journey. I guess it sort of started in 2022, at the London conference. I don't know if you were there or your listeners were there, it was in the middle of that blistering heat wave. I had put in a symposium about climate change with Mark Williams at Cardiff and some others. And Mandy, who I didn't know at this point, had put in a request to run an interactive table. BABCP suggested we link up and have a round table, which is what we did. And that's where I met Mandy and also Claire Willsher who had been looking for some guidance from the organization around activism so Mandy and Claire were engaged in a consultation, with the BABCP members at the conference about what they wanted in relation to climate change and so that was all going on. And one of the things that happened was, Richard, Thwaites, who's the editor in chief at tCBT, spoke to Mandy there and asked if she might be interested in guest editing a special issue on climate change and me and Mandy, who had, who'd been talking at the conference, talked about that, and she asked me to join her, and that's kind of where it started. Steph: Brilliant. Thank you. And did you want to talk a little bit about the climate change SIG? How many members do you have? What kind of goes on in the climate change SIG? Liz: Yeah, okay. So the, the, climate change SIG was another outcome from this conference in 2022. And Mandy put in an application for the SIG at that point. It hadn't been successful previously, but it was accepted then. And, we were a temporary committee until 2023 when we had our first AGM and that was a conference in Cardiff. And now we've got over a hundred people. Steph: Oh, wow. Liz: and we, yeah, it's great. It's really exciting. It's building. And, so they, the SIG supported this special issue and we also are running various events. So we are running an event on eco therapy and CBT in September, we're supporting that and we're also going to be supporting the running of some climate cafes, which I can talk about a bit later as well. One of the other really important things that came out of the conference and that goes beyond the SIG, in fact, is the climate statement that the BABCP have made about the organization's aspirations and guidance around climate change as a whole.
