Dr. Fin Williams
Founder & CEO (Consultant Clinical Psychologist)
Always the innovator, Fin's been at the forefront of improving access to services for children: developing services within the NHS and training new Psychological workforces at Exeter and Oxford Universities.
Driven by a promise she made to herself after receiving private inpatient support as a teenager, MindPsy is the culmination of over 2 decades in Clinical practice and research
Fin is also a proud mum of three (mostly grown) children & Maisie the dog, and there probably isn't a Watersport (or snow sport) that she doesn't love.
Lance Abson
Dev lead / Senior iOS and Unity developer
From crafting 8-bit games in my bedroom to developing for global brands like Sky, HSBC, Sony, and BBC, my journey reflects a passion for innovation and creativity. With over 50 apps and games developed, I bring a diverse skill set across iOS, Unity, Swift, C#, and Augmented Reality. I’ve worked on popular titles like Tomb Raider, Guitar Hero, Cannon Fodder, and World Football Manager. Two of my own games, Ding Dong Delivery and AI Adventure, were recognised by Apple and featured in iTunes’ Best New Games in over 100 countries.
Outside work, I recharge through indoor Skydiving, Flow Rider Surfing, volunteering at a local cat rescue, and traveling to new destinations.
Always ready for the next challenge, I love turning ideas into reality and collaborating to bring visions to life.
Praj Khairnar
AI Engineer
Meet our resident Ai whisperer and numbers enthusiast. Praj is behind MindPsy's clever combination of SLM and LLMs in an Agentic Ai application of therapy. Praj is a committee member at NHS-R Community and also an NHS Clinical Entrepreneur
When not chasing responses from AI models or diving deep into messy data, you'll find him scaling peaks and conquering trails. His superpower? The ability to binge-watch entire seasons faster than you can say 'just one more episode.’ Disclaimer: May spontaneously break into calculus or AI jargon.
