Heather Condon

I am currently in my third year of Clinical Psychology Training and am on placement in an Adult Clinical Neuropsychology service at the John Radcliffe Hospital. 

My previous placements have included an Older People's Mental Health Team (OPMH), an Older Adult's Psychological Medicine Team, a Community Team for Adults with Learning Disabilities (CTALD), Step 4 Psychological Services, and an Anxiety and Depression (A&D) pathway within Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS). 

My thesis research is investigating the feasibility of combining light therapy with a behavioural therapy for insomnia. 

Professional Interests

I am particularly interested in working within Clinical Neuropsychology, including assessment and rehabilitation following brain injury or stroke.

Prior to training I was working as an Assistant Psychologist in an Early Memory Diagnosis and Support Service, where I assisted in the neuropsychological assessment of memory difficulties, as well as running a group for people with Mild Cognitive Impairment. I have also worked as an Assistant Psychologist in an Acquired Brain Injury Service, which involved working with people at a stroke rehabilitation centre, as well as working in the community.
