Dr Mark Haydon-Laurelut
Biography
I work two days per week in the Department as a Senior Lecturer. In addition to working at the University I am also a Systemic Psychotherapist working in the NHS. My therapeutic work is primarily with adults with Intellectual Disabilities (Learning Disabilities) and their systems of significant relationships.
Research interests
My current interests encompass critical interrogations of services for men and women with intellectual disability, the intersections between therapy and disability and the development and elaboration of critical systemic practice in working with disabled people.
