The panel finished with calls for reflection. Sharon encouraged psychologists to question whether their workplace is good enough for a family member. Katriona wants to see meaningful change in access to psychology. Caitriona reminded psychologists to centre humanity. #PSIconf23

[Daryl O’Connor @healthpsycleeds]

One of the most powerful sessions I’ve *ever* seen at a conference. Drs Sharon Lambert, Catriona O’Toole & Katriona O’Sullivan discussing frankly & honestly the lived experience of trauma & the challenges of coming from a diverse background. Incredible stuff #PSIConf23

[Psychological Society of Ireland @PsychSocIreland]

Sharon pointed out that inclusion can be messy, diverse speaking and verbal ability patterns must be considered. Katriona reminded attendees they may have members of a minority group in the room without knowing. Both had encountered biases within their profession. #PSIconf23

In his 2024 PSI President address, @MccarthyOdhran spoke of his passion to promote diversity, equity and inclusion within psychology. He will continue PSI advocacy for the protection of the term psychologist by CORU, and wishes to expand our sphere of influence #PSIConf23

[Psychological Society of Ireland @PsychSocIreland]

Some pictures from last night's welcome from PSI President @AnneKehoe5 and the Conference Public Lecture on stress-provoking anxiety presented by PSI President-elect @MccarthyOdhran. Thank you, Odhrán, for such an insightful and entertaining presentation. #PSIConf23
