Dr Alicia Deale is a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist and researcher, and has been based at the Centre for Anxiety Disorders and Trauma (CADAT) at King's College London in the United Kingdom since 1999.[1] Dr Deale's research has been very influential in the UK; her research on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) for myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) was key evidence used by NICE to justify recommending CBT as an "evidence-based" treatment for patients within the British National Health Service (NHS).

somatic symptom disorder A psychiatric term to describe an alleged condition whereby a person's thoughts somehow cause physical symptoms. The actual existence of such a condition is highly controversial, due to a lack of scientific evidence. It is related to other psychiatric terms, such as "psychosomatic", "neurasthenia", and "hysteria". Older terms include "somatization", "somatoform disorder", and "conversion disorder". Such terms refer to a scientifically-unsupported theory that claims that a wide range of physical symptoms can be created by the human mind, a theory which has been criticized as "mind over matter" parapsychology, a pseudoscience.
