Dr. Peter Jakob
Consultant Clinical Psychologist
With a background in social work, Peter has worked as Clinical Psychologist and Family Therapist in both CAMHS and Adult Mental Health for over 23 years, specialising in children and families involved with Social Services. His in-depth knowledge of treating trauma as the after-effect of childhood sexual abuse and other forms of sexual violence, physical abuse, neglect and domestic violence, as well as extensive experience in providing therapy for parents’ mental health problems, have led to the development of Resource Based Trauma Therapy.
Peter has introduced Non Violent Resistance to the UK and has adapted the approach for heavily traumatised, multistressed families, and for Looked After Children.
