We are sad to share with you that father of cognitive behavior therapy, Dr. Aaron T. Beck, has passed away at the age of 100. Dr. Beck was a tireless advocate for evidence-based treatments for mental health, and his work touched countless lives. https://t.co/m7tvRYyvxY

Grieving is not a linear process. You might have a few good days but then that one low day really hits you hard. Remember that this is not a set back, grief is supposed to be felt.

A new month, a new job title …excited to start training as a Clinical Associate Psychologist 🤩🥳

[Aimee Shipp @_aimeeshipp]

Today I interviewed for the newly developed, Trainee Clinical Associate Psychologist course. Fingers crossed for new and exciting endeavours🤞🏽

[Aimee Shipp @_aimeeshipp]

@mel_stock806 Most definitely. Congrats on also making it to the reserve list on your first application, and good luck for next year too!

[Aimee Shipp @_aimeeshipp]

Sadly I didn’t make it off the reserve list this year for the DClinPsy. I’ve taken my time to feel disappointed, picked myself up, and now feeling proud that I even made it this far on a first application 🤩 onwards and upwards 👏🏽

[Aimee Shipp @_aimeeshipp]

@jason712 Thank you for your kind words. I’m actually feeling okay about it. Allowed lots of space for reflection and self-care along the way, so just feeling proud and grateful I even made it this far 😊

[Aimee Shipp @_aimeeshipp]

two more days until the deadline for accepting offers for the #dclinpsy ..nervously waiting and hoping the reserve lists move a little more 😬🤞🏽

[Aimee Shipp @_aimeeshipp]

@Anisa__Khan 100% - if you get the opportunity, I would highly recommend doing some sensory integration training with OT, it’s amazing. Definitely valuable experience for progression into AP roles!

@DianaLuk87 I wear glasses for screens and I’ve set my screen to night mode, but I think it’s probably a bit of eye strain. I think you’ve got it there Diana - a holiday 😉

[Aimee Shipp @_aimeeshipp]

Regardless of how many breaks I take throughout the day, I constantly feel screen fatigued. Any tips that people have found helpful for managing this while wfh?

Participants needed! To take part you must be a man over 18 living in the UK. The study involves looking at some sexually explicit materials and rating these. It takes no longer than 40 mins. I would really appreciate any help 🙏

@MSmithLincoln Thanks so much Michelle! Let’s hope for some wiggle room 🤞🏽

[Aimee Shipp @_aimeeshipp]

First ever #DClinPsy application, first ever interview, and made the reserve list! So close but potentially so far. Regardless, I’m so happy - what an achievement to get so far on a first application 🤩 fingers crossed for some wiggle room!

[Aimee Shipp @_aimeeshipp]

@DianaLuk87 Thanks Diana!! Fingers crossed 😬

[Aimee Shipp @_aimeeshipp]

Last week I had my first ever #DClinPsy interview, and now I nervously await the outcome this week. Regardless of what happens, I recognise how hard I’ve worked to get to this point. What will be will be, but fingers crossed hey 🤞🏽
