Lauren Bell

Lecturer

Lauren Bell

I graduated from the University of Leeds in 2010 with a BSc in Psychology. I subsequently gained clinical experience in mental health, including roles in a female personality disorder service, adult inpatient acute wards, and psychiatric intensive care. After working in clinical settings in private practice, and in the NHS, I completed a pre-registration MSc in Occupational Therapy.

As a registered Occupational Therapist, I specialised in mental health, and worked with both adults and older people in hospital and community settings. I joined the Occupational Therapy team at York St John in 2023.

I am registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and am a member of the Royal College of Occupational Therapists (RCOT).
