  • Ten misconceptions about CBT for psychosis with Dr Katherine Newman-Taylor

    Ten misconceptions about CBT for psychosis with Dr Katherine Newman-Taylor
    Nov 12 2025

    In this episode, Steph talks with clinical psychologist and CBT therapist Dr Katherine Newman-Taylor about her paper "Ten Misconceptions About CBT for Psychosis", recently published in The Cognitive Behaviour Therapist.

    Katherine shares insights into how CBT for psychosis has evolved from its early days, when psychological approaches were thought to have little place in treating psychosis, to its current role as a recommended, evidence-based therapy. They discuss some of the most common misunderstandings that still persist today including:

    · The myth that CBTp is about "thinking positively" or correcting thoughts

    · Misconceptions around the role of the therapeutic relationship in CBTp

    · The belief that some people are "too complex" for CBTp

    Katherine discusses why these misconceptions matter, how they can lead to people missing out on effective therapy, and what clinicians can do to challenge them. She also reflects on the importance of delivering high-quality, full-dose, evidence-based CBT for people with psychosis, ensuring that all clients receive the same standard of care we'd wish for our own loved ones.

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. In this episode, I am joined by Katherine Wakelin. Katherine is lead author of the paper Cognitive therapy for moral injury in post-traumatic stress disorder: integrating religious beliefs and practices which was published in the cognitive behaviour therapist Hi, Katherine Welcome to the podcast. Katherine: Hello. Thank you for having me Steph. Steph: Thank you for coming. So just before we start, would you please tell the listeners a little bit about yourself and the areas that you work? Katherine: Sure. My is Katherine, Katherine Wakelin, I'm a clinical psychologist. I did my training at the University of Surrey and since then have always part of training and after training worked in a range of different specialist trauma services, so I guess certainly work in PTSD has been a specialist interest of mine for quite a few years now. I currently work in a community mental health team in Hampshire, and I guess my role within the team is in a specialist trauma place there as well. And by the time this airs I'll also be working at the University of Southampton as part of their doctorate programme as well. So that's a bit of my background and yeah what I'm currently doing. Steph: Great. And congratulations on your new role then. That's exciting. So I probably collared you about this paper this time last year, maybe we were at the conference, because it was in progress. And I really wanted to chat to you about it, because I thought it was a really interesting paper. And I was like, if it gets published, do you want to come on the pod? You very, very kindly agreed. So often on the podcast, we often talk to people about research papers, what they did, why they did it. This is slightly different because this is a clinical guidance paper where you're giving actually practical guidance for CBT therapists on how to work with this client group. So was there any particular motivation behind writing this paper, how did this come about? Katherine: Definitely. Well, I guess it probably brewed over a few years. I think the first case I worked with, which was a PTSD case using cognitive therapy for PTSD, where moral injury was a big component in it, was when I was working at the Traumatic Stress Service in South West London with my colleague Sharif, who co-authored the paper with me. And I guess that certainly was a really exciting piece of clinical work where I drew, with lot of Sharif's encouragement and support, but drew on the client's religious beliefs that were largely underpinning and driving the moral injury that initially we'd overlooked that aspect. And then I guess as time has gone on, worked with similar cases across different religions and different religious backgrounds, but really clearly seeing this theme, particularly when working with moral injury, actually the real value if religion is a key part of somebody's identity, then the real relevance to their PTSD and their distress and that ongoing maintenance, unless that's considered. So that's something that over time kept coming up and with Sharif's encouragement, he'd been saying all along, we should publish a paper on this. And I was like, yeah, yeah, sure. But then I guess when, over time when that kept coming up, we thought, okay, this is an idea actually that I think is a key part of the missing puzzle that perhaps didn't seem to be written about or widely talked about ...

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 Kerry Young. Kerry is one of several authors on the paper How to Treat Someone Suffering with PTSD Following Rape in Adulthood published in the Cognitive Behaviour Therapist. Hi Kerry, welcome to the podcast. So, it's so nice of you to come on and talk to us today about this paper. I think most people will probably know who you are already, but for any listeners that don't, would you mind just introducing yourself and telling everyone a bit about you and the areas that you work in? Kerry: Yes, hi. So I'm Kerry Young. I'm a consultant clinical psychologist and I've worked in specialist trauma services. I worked it out just now for 28 years. I'm a bit tired. And at the moment I run a PTSD service for refugees and asylum seekers in West London near Paddington station. Steph: So, the paper we are talking about today is How to Treat Someone Suffering with PTSD Following Rape in Adulthood. That's the title of the paper and it does exactly what it says on the tin. So, I really wanted to get you onto the podcast to talk about it because it's such a comprehensive and helpful paper. Would you mind just talking a little bit about where the motivation to write this paper came from? How did it come about? Kerry: Yeah, so as I said, I've been working in trauma services since the late 1990s. And I think when you start out working in specialist trauma services, you really appreciate how treatable PTSD is. So we would be expecting, if we treat PTSD for someone really not to have any symptoms anymore. So it really is a wonderful thing to treat. And over the years, I've done more and more supervising in other services. And in fact, I've been part of the NHS England funded top up for NHS Talking Therapies to work with PTSD. And what I think all of our supervisors noticed doing this is that people are a bit sheepish about treating PTSD following sexual violence. There's lots of myths and there's lots of things that get in the way, but for good reasons, I think. But we were, all of us, I think, feeling really worried, not just in NHS Talking Therapies, but in other people we supervise that, you know, if someone has PTSD to rape or sexual violence, their chances of getting someone to treat it in an evidence-based way were quite variable, I think. And I just found that really upsetting really, because you'll hear all of these stories about people being raped, you know, maybe in their teens, in their twenties, and it changing the whole course of their life. And them going through the rest of their life really feeling to blame for what happened or feeling really bad about themselves. And this sort of one moment really kind of can change the course of someone's life and that's very particularly the case if they have PTSD. And so what I was noticing is that people are flashing back to being raped day in, day out, dreaming about it when they're asleep. And it's reinforcing this, they're feeling really bad about ...
