Dr Libby Nugent

I am a Clinical Psychologist and Group Analyst.

My work focuses on how individuals and groups make sense of difficult emotional and organisational experiences, particularly in contexts where thinking becomes more difficult under pressure.

I work with clinicians, leaders, and organisations to make sense of complex emotional and organisational situations.

In many settings, the difficulty is not a lack of skill or care. It is what happens when pressure builds and thinking becomes harder to sustain.

My work offers spaces to slow things down, to think alongside others, and to find ways of staying with what is not yet fully understood.

I write regularly about group life, pressure, and the role of story in making sense of experience. Read My Blog

The Introduction Workshop

If you are encountering this way of thinking for the first time, the introduction workshop is a helpful place to begin.

It offers a structured way to explore what happens in groups and organisations when pressure builds, and why effort and activity do not always lead to clarity.

How I work

My work draws upon group analysis, reflective practise and the use of the story as a way of thinking.

Rather than focusing only on solutions or techniques, I am interested in what happens between people: how meaning is formed, how pressure is managed, and how groups either open or close space for thought.

Stories are often used as a starting point. They allow difficult or unspoken dynamics to be approached indirectly, without forcing them into fixed explanations too quickly.
