Me trying to explain the route to a career in Clinical Psychology to my family, is like me speaking another language.

Still recruiting!
📣 Participants needed!
Are you 18–25, living in the UK, and did you grow up with a parent experiencing mental illness? I'm exploring childhood contact with mental health professionals and its impact on early adulthood.
See the poster for more information. Please share!
Second-year DClin update: all interviews for my small-scale research project are done! It’s been a privilege to speak with every service user who took part. Their experiences have given me a lot to reflect on (1/2)

I'm not having much luck finding many UK organisations/charities that specifically support and work directly with children living with a parent experiencing mental health difficulties...😣it's for thesis purposes, so any help would be appreciated please 😊

Any book recommendations that nicely outline Cognitive Analytic Therapy's theoretical framework and its origins? 😊

Sandra, why don't Black mothers engage more with mainstream maternal health services?
This is the powerful question I answered today at the NIHR (National Institute for Health and Care Research) Reproductive Health and Childbirth Symposium in Manchester. As I’m often asked.
I shared The @MotherhoodGroup approach to "Creating Inclusive Connections" and our work promoting the inclusion of under-served communities in reproductive health.
My three key takeaways from today:
1. Trust is built through consistent community presence, not just during crises
2. The voices of Black mothers must shape the services designed for them
3. Simple language and cultural understanding can transform the maternal healthcare experience
Grateful to connect with dedicated healthcare professionals committed to improving maternal outcomes for all communities. Together, we're building more equitable pathways to maternal wellbeing.

The funniest thing about this is that in the real world if the bus comes a few minutes late, you text your boss and they’re like “okay no worries”
"You get your homework in, no matter what. You can't say 'the bus was late, that's why I'm late'."
'Britain's strictest headteacher' @Miss_Snuffy lays down the law on 'personal responsibility' at her school for @NickFerrariLBC.
