About us:
Mrs. Carol HALL HART
Consultant Clinical Psychologist for the National Heath Service,
former Head of Primary Care Services at Scunthorpe NHS Trust, UK
"To whom this may interest:
Ii is a pleasure to provide a reference for Dr. Miguel-Ángel Meizoso.
Dr Meizoso has over twenty years of psychology experience, namely in the
clinic of Psychiatric Rehabilitation and in Primary Care. Actually he
has a very good knowledge of the National Health Service in the U.K.
I have known Dr Meizoso since May 1990 when I selected him for a post
within my service. Since that time I have been greatly impressed by his
extensive clinical knowledge and creative psychological approach which
is also resource in classical humanism, philosophy and the arts. Since
we have kept regular contact and discussed various clinical matters. From
January 1991 Dr. Meizoso, who started consulting within the Scunthorpe
psychology services, initiated an innovative clinical service (Direct
Care initiative) which offers a model to resolve waiting list problems
and to offer immediate access to patients. (His experience in France also
involved service planning and development.)
Dr Meizoso is an excellent psychologist. He provided clinical assessments
of patients, psychotherapy, crisis intervention, direct services to G.P:´s
medical practices, etc. He has successfully treated patients presenting
with a wide range of acute disorders, producing rapid improvements and
sustaining a very heavy caseload. He has also provided teaching, training
and supervision. He is enthusiastic, innovative and pragmatic at work.
I hold in high esteem his professional competence, dedication and ethical
integrity. His attendance record was impeccable and he did not take any
sick leave.
With regard to Dr. Meizoso´s professional qualifications, he held important
clinical responsibilities in the French Health Service and has been teaching,
continually, psychology in different countries, including Spain. He has
exceptional recommendations from psychology authors who have made major
contributions over the last decades, including Dr.
Maud Mannoni (who is Dr. Meizoso´s clinical supervisor).
Also it may be useful to be aware that, enforced by the Parliament
and "in accordance with the Regulation (EEC) No 2194/91, Spanish citizens
have the freedom to work or to provide services in any Member State. Furthermore,
the Directive 89/48/EEC enables a professional from one Member State to
become a member of the equivalent profession, if it is regulated in another
State (this was the case in France and applies to Dr Meizoso), without
having to requalify.
May I stress that Dr Meizoso brings to work an extraordinary humanist
background enabling forward-thinking and coherent action on psychological
matters; as is demonstrated by his teaching in psychology, for example
in the seminar at The Cardinal Hume Centre. In other words to employ Dr
Meizoso represents a formidable opportunity to enrich any institution
and to make a significant contribution to Public Health Services.
Yours faithfully,
