Sonia Johnson MD

Sonia trained in medicine at the Universities of Cambridge (pre-clinical) and Oxford (clinical). She also obtained a BA in Social and Political Sciences at Cambridge and an MSc in Social Psychology at LSE - her social sciences background has stood me in very good stead in developing her research career.
She trained in psychiatry at the Bethlem Royal and Maudsley Hospitals and obtained her early research posts, including a post as Clinical Lecturer in Community Psychiatry, at the Institute of Psychiatry. In 1997 she moved to UCL as a senior lecturer, subsequently becoming a Reader (2007) and then Professor of Social and Community Psychiatry (2008). Her initial clinical consultant post was in the Drayton Community Mental Health Team. Since 2003 she have worked in the Camden and Islington Early Intervention Service, which she co-founded and have helped develop.
