Dr Amanda Wilson

Dr Wilson (she/her) is a trauma informed Cognitive Behavioral Therapist, a Chartered Psychologist, an Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society, and a Fellow of the Royal Society for Public Health. She is the Director of the Mary Seacole Research Centre. She uses a wide repertoire of research methods to better understand public health psychology through the lenses of marginalisation, health, and well-being, and is broadly interested in applying research to address disparities in local, national, international, and online communities/virtual reality. The underlying theme of her research is trauma (unplanned pregnancy, sexual abuse, homophobic/transphobic abuse, suicide/self-harm, PTSD, and technology based domestic abuse and coercive control). 

Dr Wilson completed a qualitative PhD in Psychology using discourse analysis to explore British men’s engagement in family planning to improve maternal and infant health, reducing unplanned pregnancy. She investigated multiple perspectives to further understand how British men’s engagement is influenced by: men themselves, health services, nurse practitioners, training manuals, female partners, male contraceptive methods, and semen constructs. She holds a professional AM degree from the University of Chicago, for which she completed independent research on poverty and marginalisation in India, focusing on family planning within a Muslim slum community. She also gained further experience in the non-profit sector in Chicago through internship placements.

Dr Wilson continues to use the principles of social justice and reproductive justice to guide her work, and remains active further volunteering in her community with the local LBGT+ sexual health service as a volunteer Trauma Focused CBT practitioner. In her spare time she is training three support dogs to use in her practice with adults and she is interested in dog assisted data collection.
