SINOUÉ

Ancien Professeur des universités-Praticien Hospitalier

Yves Sarfati est médecin, professeur de psychiatrie – M.D., Ph.D.
Docteur en neurosciences (Sorbonne Université UPCM – Paris VI), psychanalyste, écrivain.
Nommé Professeur des Universités-Praticien Hospitalier au Journal Officiel du 12 décembre 2003.

Ses travaux scientifiques débutent à l’INSERM sur la communication neuronale, la neurophysiologie et l’imagerie cognitives dans la schizophrénie. Il est auteur des premiers protocoles d’imagerie cérébrale dans cette maladie, centrés sur la théorie de l’esprit. Il a publié dans les plus importantes revues internationales sur ce thème (Cognitive Neuropsychiatry, Schizophrenia Research, Psychological Medecine, Neuroimage…). Par ailleurs, en analyse avec Michel Ody (SPP) puis Hélène Widlöcher (APF), en contrôle avec Joyce McDougall puis Alain Vanier, il acquiert une connaissance transdisciplinaire, scientifique et psychanalytique, des modèles de fonctionnement du cerveau et de l’esprit.

Secondairement, il réoriente ses recherches sur l’articulation de la psychanalyse et des neurosciences avec l’histoire de l’art, au service de l’histoire de l’art. La peinture du XIXème siècle est devenue l’objet principal de son analyse transdisciplinaire appliquée : à partir d’une investigation systématique des tableaux, de la correspondance et des recherches historiques, il propose une méthodologie de lecture de l’œuvre peint qui en renouvelle profondément la compréhension. Ce travail transdisciplinaire autorise aussi une nouvelle manière d’appréhender le fonctionnement du cerveau : depuis les percepts élémentaires (excitation rétinienne, cortex visuel) jusqu’aux processus associatifs complexes (aires associatives, langagières, émotionnelles). D’où découle une narrativité compréhensive renouvelée de la peinture, qu’elle soit de Courbet, de Whistler, ou de l’homme paléolithique – ses sujets d’études privilégiés

En 2006, il choisit de démissionner de son poste de Professeur des Universités-Praticien Hospitalier à l’Université Paris–Ile de France-Ouest pour exercer en libéral ses pratiques clinique, d’enseignement, de recherche et d’écriture. Il rejoint le Centre de Recherche Psychanalyse, Médecine et Société (Université Paris VII Diderot – dir. Alain Vanier) et fonde un séminaire à la Maison des Sciences de L’Homme – Paris Nord avec Richard Rechtman (psychiatre, anthropologue et directeur d’études à l’EHESS), et Stéphane Nadaud (pédopsychiatre, philosophe et responsable d’enseignement à l’EHESS).

En septembre 2011, à l’occasion de la réouverture du nouveau Musée Courbet d’Ornans, il a organisé, en lien avec l’université de Franche-Comté, un colloque international qui a confronté des spécialistes psychiatres, neurologues, psychanalystes, aux travaux des meilleurs historiens de l’art spécialistes de Courbet. En 2017 il a renouvelé l’expérience au musée d’Orsay sous la présidence de Petra Chu (New-York University). Les actes de ces colloques sont publiés aux éditions Les presses du Réel.

Depuis 2015 il est professeur enseignant à l’European Psychiatric Association (EPA http://www.europsy.net/education/summer-school/curriculum/) et à l’Association Psychanalyse et Psychothérapie (APEP http://apep-psy.com). Il dirige également depuis 2016 le séminaire de spécialisation DES des internes en psychiatrie « Formation à la pratique de la psychiatrie psychodynamique – Son articulation théorique aux neurosciences » à l’hôpital Sainte-Anne.

Il a co-organisé en septembre 2018 un colloque international à l’École de Médecine consacré au décloisonnement des pratiques entre psychanalyse psychiatrie et neurosciences, sous la direction d ‘Eric Kandel, prix Nobel de médecine 2000. https://www.psychanalysepsychiatrieneurosciences.com

I have worked as a NHS General Adult Consultant Psychiatrist in the Borough of Kensington and Chelsea since 2002. I am also an Honorary Senior Lecturer in Psychological Medicine at Imperial College, London. I have extensive experience in assessing and managing all major mental illnesses, including depression (mild to severe), all anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder, ADHD, psychosis, drug and alcohol misuse and dual diagnosis (co-existing drug/alcohol misuse and mental disorder).

I am interested in Clinical Effectiveness – that is ensuring health care treatments provided are maximally effective, by being based on the most up-to-date evidence available. I lead on this in my NHS practice. I am also involved at a London and National level in helping to develop clinically effective mental health services.

Originally German, I studied medicine and Psychiatry in France and worked as Child and Adolescent Psychiatry consultant in a French hospital for 20 years. I directed a day care centre for autistic children and attachment disorder there, and was in charge of a generic CAMHS team and a paediatric liaison team. I was also trained in interpersonal psychotherapy, systemic family therapy and hypnotherapy in France.

Since 2015, I moved to the UK where I have been sharing my working time between various NHS teams (neurodevelopmental, eating disorder and adolescent crisis teams) and private practice.

I graduated from Edinburgh University in 1973, and entered psychiatry at the Neuropsychiatric Centre, Royal AirForce Hospital Wroughton in Wiltshire in 1980. My previous post-graduate experience had been in General Medicine, Expedition Medicine and Neurology. I was appointed Consultant in 1986 and my focus turned to psychological trauma after the Lockerbie Air Disaster in 1988 and active service in the Gulf War of 1991 as RAF psychiatric adviser in the field, first-ever debriefings of British prisoners-of-war and released British hostages from the Lebanon. My team developed new treatment strategies for trauma in the RAF and post-RAF I concentrated on trauma services for civilians, police officers, emergency service personnel and military veterans.

In 1992 I received the RAF Aviation Medicine prize and in 1993 received the “People of the Year“ Award from the Royal Association for Disability and Rehabilitation in recognition of my work in the field of psychotrauma.

Currently, I am Lead Consultant in Psychological Trauma at Nightingale Hospital London, and have another outpatient clinic in Wiltshire and visiting Professor to the University of Chester’s MSc in Psychological Trauma.

Consultant Psychiatrist

I am a senior consultant psychiatrist, with expertise in supporting recovery from a broad range of psychiatric and psychological conditions. I graduated from University College Dublin Medical School in 1986 and completed specialised psychiatry training at the world famous Maudsley Hospital in London, where I have worked as a consultant for 20 years. I was awarded a Fellowship of the Royal College of Psychiatrists in 2011, for promoting developments and standards in mental health care.

My clinical experience is extensive and varied. I have expertise in treating conditions such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, perinatal mental health problems, OCD, personality difficulties, self-harm and psychosis. I have worked in both in-patient and community settings within the NHS.

I specialise in treating stress-related problems and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), having worked at the Maudsley’s Traumatic Stress Service for over 8 years. I subsequently developed a special interest in treating psychological consequences of being stalked.

I have a particular interest in neuropsychiatry, medically unexplained conditions and functional neurological disorder, having trained at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery at Queen Square in London.

I have extensive experience in medico-legal settings, working with legal teams to provide professional assessment and opinions. I provide evidence in court as an expert witness.

My current NHS role is within a forensic psychiatric setting, where I assess and treat patients with complex presentations, spanning both mental illness and personality difficulties. I act as Lead Consultant for the service.

I have worked in private practice for over ten years in both inpatient and outpatient settings.

I remain up to date with advances in treatment through continuing professional development, my work with the Royal College and as an active researcher and teacher.

I am an Honorary Senior Lecturer at Guys, Kings and St Thomas’ (GKT) School of Medicine and Visiting Lecturer at the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology and Neuroscience. I have over 50 published research papers in academic journals. My early research was in PTSD and perinatal psychiatry and I have also published widely on stalking, service development and novel treatment strategies to improve recovery. A list of publications is available on request.

I train and supervise medical students and junior doctors and recently won the Innovation in Clinical Teaching award from GKT. I appraise my consultant colleagues, am a recognised Educational Supervisor and support developments nationally in my role as elected member of the Forensic Faculty of the Royal College. In addition, I have an international approach to clinical care and development and have taught in Somaliland, Ireland, America and Australia.

Anglais

Consultant Psychiatrist

Following psychiatric training at the Maudsley Hospital and three years as a university lecturer in clinical psychiatry at Charing Cross and Westminster Medical School, I have been a consultant psychiatrist since 1996, initially as general adult and liaison psychiatrist at St Mary’s Hospital and in recent years as liaison psychiatrist at UCLH. Between times, I was for a number of years the lead consultant on intensive care wards covering a busy inner city catchment area, accepting for treatment patients subject to ongoing criminal proceedings. I deal routinely with issues of risk assessment and management.

Following retirement from the NHS, I am an Honorary Consultant Liaison Psychiatrist at University College London Hospital and continue to have a clinic within the gastroenterology department.

In earlier years I published in the area of schizophrenia, but more recently have carried out audit work in liaison psychiatry, the interaction of functional symptoms and mental health in gastroenterology and the presentation of alcohol problems in the general hospital.

My interests are in the treatment of patients with mood disorders, and in those with a combination of psychological and functional physical health symptoms. However, I also have broad experience over the range of psychiatric diagnosis, and in managing the full range of psychiatric disorders in alliance with colleagues in therapy disciplines.

Consultant Psychiatrist , General Psychiatry

I studied medicine in Nottingham and trained in psychiatry with the South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust (Guys and St Thomas’ hospitals) and at St Mary’s Hospital. I am a general adult psychiatrist and have experience working with the full range of mental health problems that are encountered in adulthood. In addition to my private practice, which has been built gradually over 15 years, I continue to work as an NHS Consultant Psychiatrist in London.

One of my main areas of specialist expertise is Adult ADHD. I work in one of the very few London-based NHS specialist Adult ADHD services. I am on the Executive Board of UKAAN (the main professional organisation for Adult ADHD in the UK) and I am UKAAN’s Training Programme Director. The comprehensive training programme UKAAN offers is highly respected in the UK and recognised internationally for its quality. I lecture widely on the topic of Adult ADHD and its management.

I am also Medical Director of ‘The Grove Practice’, an established central London psychotherapy and training organisation. The Grove is currently involved in providing specialist trauma-focussed therapy for those affected by the Grenfell Tower disaster.

I have, in recent years, worked as a psychiatrist to a London-based university, seeing students with mental health difficulties. I am one of very few psychiatrists also trained as a psychotherapist (integrating a variety of trainings including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Hypnotherapy, EMDR and EFT into my psychiatric practice). I have also done some training in nutrition, a particular area of interest.

I have recently introduced two new, cutting-edge interventions to support my clinical approach:

• The first is the use of pharmacogenetic testing (specifically the ‘Genecept’ mouth swab test by US company, ‘Genomind’). I have come to recognise the clear benefits of a more targeted and informed approach to medication choice. The results of the test help patients and their clinicians migrate away from medications for which an identified genetic variant would likely lead to poor tolerability or non-response.

 

•  The second is the use of leading US medical device, ‘Alpha-Stim’, an FDA approved cranial electrotherapy treatment for Anxiety, Depression, Insomnia and Pain management. With an extensive evidence-base, and technology that has been refined and tested over 30 years, Alpha-stim is now available to the UK market, and I have already integrated in to my routine patient care. After a highly successful study in the NHS, Alpha-stim looks set to get NICE approval for the treatment of Generalised Anxiety Disorder.

I am co-author of a textbook on Adult ADHD, and editor of a book on alcoholism in high functioning individuals. I am (co)author of a number of papers both in Adult ADHD and Liaison psychiatry.

I am currently chairing a team of European experts in the 2018 update of the pharmacotherapy section of the European Consensus Statement on Diagnosis and Treatment of Adult ADHD.

I occasionally do medico-legal work related to Adult ADHD.

Recognised as a leading Clinical and Academic Psychiatrist I have served as a NHS Consultant Psychiatrist since 1990 and also as Director of Medical Education and Honorary Visiting Research Professor.

I am a General Adult Psychiatrist with expertise in a wide variety of Mental Health Conditions, including Anxiety and Mood related disorders and have special interests in Psychological Medicine, Psychosomatics and Pain. Through my long association with the London Child and Family Practice, where I have previously served as Executive Chairman, I have also developed special interest in the mental health problems of young adults.

As an expert I aim to deliver a thorough assessment to ensure, in the light of the latest clinical and research evidence and the patient’s personal preferences, the right choice or balance between treatment with talking and/or medication.

Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist

I was a consultant in child and adolescent psychiatry in the NHS for over 25 years in NELFT. I was medical director in NELFT for 6 years will 2014.

The problems young people experience fall into three categories.

Firstly they may develop a mental health condition, with symptoms, for example, depression, anxiety and OCD are common conditions.

Secondly they may have one of the neuro-developmental disorders, ADHD or ASD for example.

Thirdly they may have got into a significant struggle with managing how they feel. This problem is not a condition or a disorder but how they understand and process their feelings, which when it goes wrong leaves a young person feeling overwhelmed, isolated, even out of touch with their feelings, which can lead to cutting or other maladaptive behaviours. These three problems can present separately or together.

My approach is to take a developmental perspective, to explore the young persons history and life experiences, and from there assess for symptoms to identify if a condition is present, to look for neuro-developmental struggles and their associated behaviours and to explore emotional struggles. Once it is clear what the problem is it is possible to agree a treatment plan

My main aim is to help a child/young person to continue, or resume, a healthy development so they can achieve at school/college and socially.

Eating Disorder Consultant Psychiatrist, Specialist in Eating Disorders , General Psychiatry

I qualified in medicine at the Royal Free Hospital School of Medicine in 1982. Following this I worked in Obstetrics & Gynaecology and Casualty and then began to specialise in Psychiatry in 1984. I trained at Kings College and the Maudsley Hospitals in London and in 1989 gained Membership of the Royal College of Psychiatrists. I became a Senior Registrar on the Oxford part time training scheme and gained a CCST in General Adult Psychiatry 1998. During this time, I gained extensive experience in acute general psychiatry and psychological treatment methods including individual and group dynamic psychotherapy. In addition, I hold a certificate in Cognitive Therapy (Oxford Post Qualification course 1994). Using this relevant experience, I started to work in the field of Eating Disorders. I worked as an NHS Consultant in Buckinghamshire from 1999 – 2003. This post included acute general psychiatry for adults and Project Leadership for setting up a new adult eating disorder service in Buckinghamshire and appointing an outpatient specialist team for the county. This service is now combined with Oxfordshire. In 2003, I moved into private practice to work with the specialist Eating Disorder team at Nightingale Hospital London.

I have taught and lectured including and have given a series of educative talks to schools, medical colleagues and allied professions about various aspects of eating disorders including, ‘Anorexia and Bulimia Nervosa: Current Management Menu’, ’The Dangers of Dieting’, and ‘Eating Disorders and Reproduction’.

I have a Masters in Social Sculpture (a contemporary art form with theoretical underpinnings in Philosophy). I am now engaged in part-time arts-based PhD research exploring links between this field and Medicine. My research concern is, broadly, how connective aesthetic practices may make clinical practice more humane.

I am co-convener of the Aesthetics in Mental Health Group (AiMH) which I founded in in 2014. This continues with annual symposium. This group incorporates theory and practice of philosophy, psychiatry and related disciplines. This group is part of the Collaborating Centre for Values-Based Health and Social Care at St Catherine’s College, Oxford.

Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist

I am a Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist with more than 12 years NHS clinical experience supporting children and families, and 8 years experience in teaching and clinical research at Imperial College London. I trained as a doctor at the University of Aberdeen and completed my psychiatric training at St Mary’s Hospital, London.

As an NHS Consultant, I led multidisciplinary teams in CAMHS Inpatient and Crisis Services (Forest House Adolescent Unit, HPFT NHS Trust); Outpatient Generic CAMHS, Specialist Paediatric Liaison and Neurodevelopmental services (CNWL, BEH NHS Trusts, London). I support children, adolescents and their families across the range of mild to severe difficulties (including anxiety, depression, autism, ADHD, somatising) that can arise throughout the different developmental life stages.

I have completed additional training at the University of Oxford in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and am a qualified CBT therapist. I am also qualified in specialised ADHD and Autism assessments e.g. ADOS(Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule) and ADIR(Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised).

I have clinical and research expertise in supporting children with physical manifestations of psychological distress. I also have particular experience in supporting the emotional health of children who have a physical condition, and have run specialist clinics for children with diabetes and epilepsy.

I have worked with many different cultures and communities in the UK. Additionally, I have developed mental health services and education with NGO’s and Governmental Organisations overseas, including in Ghana, Malawi, Ethiopia. These experiences have enhanced my understanding of the spiritual and cultural influences in mental and physical health.

I am active in research and teaching doctors, nurses, therapists and also provide talks for parents and schools. I have particular clinical and research expertise in child and adolescent psychiatry, specifically relating to somatising (where psychological distress is experienced as physical symptoms), helping children and adolescents cope with physical illness and self harm. I also have extensive experience in assessing and managing Autism, ADHD, anxiety, OCD and depression.

Consultant psychiatrist, Addiction counsellor, Psychotherapist, Therapist

Languages : Arabic, English, Swedish

I have been working in the mental health sector since 1994 in Sweden, U.K. and as an adviser in several Arabic countries. I have extensive experience in basic research, applied research and each of the four clinical settings in medicine: family medicine, neurology, neurophysiology and psychiatry. My PhD thesis focused on the impact of human behaviour on changes in brain activity. My work at the Karoliniska Nobel hospital, was mainly focused on the research and treatment of bipolar affective disorders at the world leading bipolar centre. The centre has a capacity of 1200 outpatients with inpatient facilities addressing the need of the bipolar patients during crisis and recovery. I also worked at the Bipolar centre at Oxford University Hospital. I am the UK Chief investigator for the BRIDGE screening programme. The purpose of this study was to screen patients with depression who might suffer from concealed Bipolar illnesses. 5564 patients were screened world-wide. This study has an impact on the definition and diagnosis of the Bipolar Affective Spectrum. I teach medical students, supervise junior doctors and mentor new consultant psychiatrists. I was awarded a prize by the Swedish Medical Association for my work in helping overseas doctors to efficiently integrate into the Swedish health system.

Consultant Psychiatrist

I am a general adult psychiatrist working in both the NHS and private sector in London.

I completed my medical education in Italy and my postgraduate qualification in General Adult Psychiatry both in Italy and in the UK. I have e deep interest in research and I worked for four years at the National Institute of Health (NIH), Bethesda, USA. In 2008 I completed a PhD in addiction biology.

Over the years, I developed a broad range of clinical and research expertise working in Italy, UK and USA.

I have experience in the assessment and treatment of different types of Psychiatric disorders including Anxiety (Panic Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Generalized Anxiety), Mood Disorders (Depression, Bipolar Illness), Psychosis (e.g. Schizophrenia), and Personality Disorders.

I have a special interest in Neuropsychiatry that includes the treatment of Functional Neurological Syndromes (or Conversion disorders) such as non-epileptic seizures. I am also interested in the management of mental health problems in patients who are also affected by neurological conditions (e.g. Epilepsy and Parkinson’s disease).

I worked in multiple psychiatric services within NHS including the Early Intervention Unit for Psychosis (South London and Maudsley NHS trust), Home Treatment Team, Community Mental Health Team, the Neuropsychiatric Department at St George’s Hospital (South West London & St George’s Mental Health Trust).

Since 2013, I have been appointed as substantive Consultant Psychiatrist at South West London & St George’s Mental Health Trust.

I believe research is fundamental in improving our ability to understand and treat mental health problems. I am very interested in understanding how genetic and environmental factors can jointly predispose to psychiatric disorders.  Indeed, this is a first step toward the development of new treatments.

I started my research activity in 2004 working as postdoctoral visiting fellow at the prestigious National Institute of Health, (NIH) Bethesda, USA. At NIH, I focused my research interest on addiction and personality disorders. As a result of my work, I obtained a PhD in neurobiology of affective disorder in 2008. In London, I continued my research activity working as Clinical Lecturer at the Institute of Psychiatry Kings College London.

Curiosity, a desire to truly understand things and a deep interest in people are the key elements that run through my ongoing educational & professional journey, and continue to shape my clinical practice.

For the best part of the last twenty years; through Medical School, Philosophy, Clinical Psychiatry and the world of Neuroscience Research it is particular individuals and specific moments, that continue to influence me most.  Across many institutions and a diverse range of settings, I have learnt most from individuals and teams who do not know it all, from those who are open to learning and from individuals who are able to bring a sense of possibility to each new moment and experience.

Curiosity, and a deep interest in people, have motivated my higher training in Adult Psychiatry, Addiction Psychiatry and the field of Sleep Medicine and were key features of my work as a Consultant General Adult Psychiatrist within the London National Health Service.

Consultant Psychiatrist

I trained in medicine at Guy’s and St Thomas’ Hospitals in London and completed my psychiatric training in London. I have worked as a consultant psychiatrist in the NHS in community, inpatient, assertive outreach and home treatment settings which has given me extensive experience in treating a wide range of psychiatric conditions.

I have worked in ethnically diverse areas of London and have an interest in transcultural psychiatry. Since qualifying as a consultant I undertook further extensive training in eating disorders and also psychotherapy. I treat clients with eating disorders in inpatient, day care and outpatient settings and I regularly see clients for Cognitive Analytic therapy.

I have special interests in anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, eating disorders, psychotherapy, Adult ADHD and transcultural psychiatry.

Adolescent Consultant Psychiatrist

I have experience and training in 3 different countries and cultures, Pakistan, USA, and UK. This affords me a wide range of approaches to best treat my patients. My training in the United States and the United Kingdom was well rounded in the diagnoses and use of multiple treatment modalities, i.e. psychoanalytic approaches, group and family work, medication and CBT.

I love my work, each person presents a challenge, ‘what is the problem, how can they be helped?’ I wanted to apply a similar approach in society for charitable purposes. I set up a UK Registered Charity, Concern for Mental Health, to help people suffering from a mental illness. Our work centres on consulting with ailing Psychiatric Institutions, teaching and training Mental Health Professionals and creating innovative programs that fit in naturally with the local ethos and culture, campaigning to reduce stigma around mental illness.

I have a wide understanding of development, psychology and pathology. I lecture on diverse topics related to my work and interests at national and local hospital meetings in the USA and UK, and have publications and presentations related to these topics:

• Depression in young children and adolescents
• Epidemiological study and follow-up of individuals with Mental Retardation and autism, The Frequency of Fragile X Chromosome in this group: Research with Professor Michael Rutter
• Comparison of instruments HBS (Wing) & ADI [Rutter] in the diagnosis of Autism.
• DSM IV Diagnostic International Field Trial of Autism
• Family Therapy & Attachment Theory(with Dr John Bingham and Professor Issy Kolvin )
• Children of Homosexual and Heterosexual Single Mothers
• In depth case study: ‘Sexual Development of the Adolescent Daughter of a Homosexual Mother’
• Psychiatric Aspects of Trans-sexualism, Transsexual Parents and their children(with Professor Richard Green )
• Social and psychological Implications of Genetic testing, Amniocentesis.
• Issues for parents related to the death of a child due to Genetic Disease
• Discipline and Aggression in Average Families (with Dr Judith Kestenburg)
