Gareth Morgan

I am a Chartered Clinical Psychologist. I work part-time as Youth Lead for the Climate Psychology Alliance, and am a clinical tutor on the University’s Clinical Psychology training programme. I am deeply saddened, terrified and angry about how the climate, ecological and other planetary emergencies have escalated to the level they have reached. To this end, I value working with others to challenge the individualised western approaches to psychology that speak of ‘symptoms’ of ‘mental illness’ in ways that obscure the relationship between human experience and wider socio-political contexts.

My research interests include : psychological responses to the climate crisis; diagnosis identity and stigma; the Power Threat Meaning Framework; and supporting people with intellectual disabilities and their carers.
