A psychologist who shoplifted a Karen Walker designer dress has been found guilty of professional misconduct.
The Health Practitioners Disciplinary Tribunal made its ruling yesterday on the Auckland health worker, whose name it has suppressed.
The woman has admitted cutting a tag off the dress and putting it in her handbag in 2014.
A shop assistant stopped her after an alarm rang as she left the shop and the $276 dress was spotted in her bag.
Police were called and the woman received a formal caution but was not prosecuted.
