In this episode of Let’s Talk about CBT – Research Matters, host Steph Curnow speaks with Dr. Nick Grey, a consultant clinical psychologist with extensive experience in anxiety disorders and PTSD. Together, they discuss the paper “Ten Misconceptions about Trauma-Focused CBT for PTSD,” co-authored by Nick and published in the Cognitive Behaviour Therapist. The paper addresses common myths and challenges in trauma-focused CBT, offering insights for both therapists and researchers in the field. Key misconceptions discussed include: Misconception 1: “Trauma-focused treatments are not suitable for complex or multiple trauma.” Misconception 2: “Stabilisation is always needed before memory work.” Misconception 10: “Cognitive Therapy for PTSD is rigid and inflexible.” If you enjoyed this episode, please rate, review, and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

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 am talking to Dr Nick Grey. Nick is a consultant clinical psychologist and has worked in the field of anxiety disorders and PTSD for many years. He is also one of the authors of the paper we are going to be talking about today which is titled “Ten misconceptions about trauma-focused CBT for PTSD” and is published in the Cognitive Behaviour Therapist. So Nick, welcome to the podcast. Nick: Thank you, Steph. It's nice to be here. Steph: It's great to have you. So before we get talking about the paper, I was wondering if you would just mind telling everyone a bit about who you are and the areas in which you work. Nick: Yeah, sure. So, I'm a clinical psychologist by professional background and a sort of a CBT therapist by sort of flavour of psychological therapy. And I work down in Sussex now, based in Brighton working across Sussex partnership and for many years I worked up in London at the Centre for Anxiety Disorders and Trauma and continue to work together with David Clark, Anke Ehlers and other members of the Wellcome Trust anxiety disorders team who are based in Oxford. And, and that's where a lot of the work that we're going to be talking about has originated in both London and Oxford and in particular the paper is pulled together by the Oxford team. What I should also say and just wanted to say up front is that the paper is lead authored by Hannah Murray, who sadly passed away after a long illness in December 2023 and her input, not just to this paper, but to us as a group has been unbelievably crucial and, both us as a team, but I know that the wider, sort of CBT community will really miss her. Miss her contribution. Steph: Absolutely. And thank you for mentioning Hannah. She was a great friend to the journals as well. She spent so much time contributing to both of our journals, mentoring people, reviewing for us. Yeah, we really miss her. So I really wanted to talk to you about this paper today, because not only is it one of our most widely read papers, which is brilliant, but the format of this paper was so popular, it's actually sparked a whole new series of papers for us. We're doing a whole new set of “10 Misconceptions” papers now that we're currently commissioning. I just wanted to ask how did this come about? What was the idea for this? Nick: The idea came around because we found ourselves, doing a lot of training, a lot of supervision over a number of years, particularly for the treatment that we provide Cognitive Therapy for PTSD, which is one of the types of trauma focused kind of CBT. And we found ourselves saying many of the same things again and again, really sensible questions that people would raise in training workshops, really sensible questions people would raise in supervision, and we thought it would be helpful for us and therefore for all the people that we are also sort of like supervising and training to have us almost perhaps a single resource. So like an FAQs, around some of the things in this line of work. Steph: Before we get into talking about the misconceptions themselves, you've worked in PTSD and trauma for a long time now. If you don't mind me asking, when you started out were there any myths or misconceptions that you held about working with ...
