@LiyahPsych I second the Oxford Handbook. A Beginner’s Guide to Cognitive Analytic Therapy is also good.

@ella_bails @UniofBath Thank you so much can I send you a DM?

[Mimi Adenekan @MiladeMimi]

Would anyone who’s had an interview at Bath or a Bath trainee be able to have a chat about the #dclin course and interview #dclinpsy @UniofBath

[Mimi Adenekan @MiladeMimi]

@puredhahab @LiyahPsych @ruqayyah_amani Yeah, I was considering doing the same thing last year. Some trusts offer the foundation and intermediate level certificates too, again part time, and may fund it or subsidise it if done through the trust

[Mimi Adenekan @MiladeMimi]

Wondering if anyone knows of or would be interested in setting up across course reflective practice group for trainee clinical psychologist #dclin #dclinpsy

[Mimi Adenekan @MiladeMimi]

Wondering if there are any Hertfordshire trainees who would be able to speak to an applicant about the @DclinpsyUh course ahead of application submission #dclin

[DClin-Connect @DClinConnect]

DClin-Connect is looking for mentors for the 2023/24 #DClinPsy application season.

Info sheet & questionnaire can be found here: https://t.co/cjn7TEACxb

An RT or share with your networks would be appreciated 🙂

Seeing that applications have opened again this year for #dclin applications, honestly gave me heart palpitations. Anyway, my dms are always open especially if anyone needs support with the research methods test 😊

[Mimi Adenekan @MiladeMimi]

@mia_poku Happy to help but I am an incoming trainee. But feel free to DM 😊 not sure whether you were able to join any mentoring schemes, but that might also be helpful. I know a few are closed for applicants but as Rosie posted BRAVE are still open. Did it last year and it was great 😊

[BRAVE Mentoring @BraveMentoring]

After a successful first cycle, we are happy to announce that registration for the BRAVE Mentorship 2023 cycle is now OPEN. The scheme is for Aspiring psychologists from minoritised background

@psychologyamyb Discovering Community Psychology is also a great podcast - really helped me think wider about the role of a Clinical Psychologist

[Mimi Adenekan @MiladeMimi]

@heidipsychology That got me! I am so happy for you. You deserve it, Herts are lucky to have you 💕

[Mimi Adenekan @MiladeMimi]

@ClinicallyMeg Omg Amazing 🤩 I’m so so so happy for you 🥹

[Mimi Adenekan @MiladeMimi]

Wondering if there are any #UEL #dclinpsy trainees, who are currently doing the course and and not living in London? @UEL_News

[Mimi Adenekan @MiladeMimi]

@Emilyctoole This. Literally me a few hours post-interview. It was overwhelming and I still get the fleeting thoughts now. I do not think they are going to completely go till I can make peace with this current cycle but I just wanted to say I do feel better and you are definitely not alone

[Mimi Adenekan @MiladeMimi]

@KingsDClinPsy I wonder if this heightens anxiety as applicants feel that they are not progressing despite meeting minimum criteria, often jobs will say that they will keep you in mind going forward so if an applicant was on the reserve list for a place this can be considered

[Mimi Adenekan @MiladeMimi]

@StephArmstrong_ @andieeeeeeeee Thank you for sharing this reflection, I was trying to describe this to my partner and family the other day because I have realised I am not so upset about the rejections it’s all the stuff around it, especially the not being about to plan and the lack of a secure career path

[Mimi Adenekan @MiladeMimi]

Wondering if anyone had any advice on undertaking a critical appraisal as part of a selection test (timed)? Struggling about how to start preparing and how to potentially read through a paper and getting points down #dclinpsy #selectiontest #criticalappraisal

[Mimi Adenekan @MiladeMimi]

@LiyahPsych You can try resending it I had the same issue with my academic reference

[Mimi Adenekan @MiladeMimi]

@rosiejstone Thank you for doing this and yes please 😊
