Gareth Abbey is a researcher affiliated with Bournemouth University under the Faculty of Science and Technology. Holding a PhD in Clinical Neuroscience and postgraduate qualifications in low-intensity psychological therapies, his work bridges clinical psychology and mental health research.
His research primarily investigates cancer-related post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), focusing on social and cognitive factors in its development and maintenance. He has published extensively on emotional processing therapies, including a 2015 meta-analysis in Psych-Oncology and studies exploring the efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in trauma treatment.
The trends in his publications highlight interdisciplinary intersections between clinical psychology, oncology, and mental health. He emphasizes emotional processing as a core mechanism in PTSD interventions, particularly for cancer survivors, and contributes to understanding trauma's psychological impact through mixed-methods research.
