Dr Jason Hepple MA FRCPsych was born in Somerset and studied medicine and then psychiatry and psychotherapy at Oxford.

He became interested in Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT) in the early nineties as an alternative to ‘majoring’ in psychoanalytic psychotherapy or CBT.

He is now course co- director of the Somerset CAT practitioner training, the University of Exeter CAT foundation course within the DClinPsych training and is co-trainer for the inter-regional CAT psychotherapy training. He has served two terms as Chair of the Association for Cognitive Analytic Therapy (ACAT) and if an ACAT life member. He has taught all over the world on CAT in later life, CAT in groups and the dialogic theory behind CAT.
