Over the years, Leona Sears has been enjoying working with people with complex as well easier to treat mental health issues. However, it was initially Prof Kratochvil’s work, clinical psychologist, that inspired Leona Sears to become a psychologist when she trained as a psychiatric nurse. She was later privileged to secure a post in the top psychological department in the NHS and she enjoyed supporting excellent psychologists i.e. Dr Worrell, Dr Green and Mr Tata. Leona Sears has chosen to have her private practice supervised by senior, internationally renowned and recommended supervisors i.e. Mrs Karp and Mrs Gilbert to optimize her professional development.
