Dr Alesia Moulton-Perkins took up her post as Course Tutor and Clinical Psychologist at the Oxford Institute of Clinical Psychology Training and Research in March 2025. She qualified as a clinical psychologist from the University of Surrey in 2009 and as a BABCP-accredited CBT Therapist from the Salomons Institute for Applied Psychology in 2010.
Previously, she was a Senior Teaching Fellow on the University of Surrey clinical psychology training programme leading on BABCP accreditation and Digital Mental Health. Before academia she worked as a clinical psychologist in NHS Trusts across Sussex and Kent including leading pre-registration psychology training; establishing an ADHD and Tics/Tourettes psychological therapy service for patients in an adult neurodevelopmental conditions clinic; delivering therapy to hospital staff in occupational health and patients with long-term health conditions (LTCs) in a clinical health psychology service; and delivering CBT in an Improving Access to Psychological therapies service. Prior to her career in psychology, she was a teacher in the UK and Spain.
Alongside her teaching role at Oxford, Alesia is co-director of an online clinic offering assessment and treatment for children, young people and adults with neurodevelopmental disorders. She also supervises therapists in the NHS and private sector, with specialisms including neurodevelopmental conditions, CBT and Third Waves therapies for LTCs and reflective practice/consultation for senior clinicians exploring organisational dilemmas. She works therapeutically with neurodivergent adults. She is currently Secretary of the Division of Clinical Psychology Digital Healthcare Subcommittee, where she led the development of the British Psychological Society’s eLearning on digital mental health.
Alesia’s research interests align with her clinical and professional specialisms, focusing mainly on digital mental health and psychological therapies for adults, particularly CBT, Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy and Compassion Focused Therapy.
