Academic books tend to be quite expensive, but sometimes university libraries get copies.

@nickswhite I bet it makes no difference to success on top of the privilege the aspiring psych already has. Qualified psychs charging ppl for your time with no promise of actual success is shady AF.

[Kate Quinn @Kate_E_Quinn]

@nickswhite Recent experience of recruiting an AP suggests to me that aspects of privilege still influence likelihood to get ahead: access to master's study, being able to drive etc etc. We won't redress that by charging aspiring psychologists for support in getting on training.

Excuse the voice (was recovering from a cold)

@Kate_E_Quinn @nickswhite @AJGlaves I thought it was a wedding dress!

Less than two weeks to go before starting the DClin and I still feel exhausted from wrapping up my time at Rampton Hospital. I’ll be sitting in a dimly lit room so my brain can breathe for a while. Exciting but nerve wracking times ahead.

[Sam Barton @Sam_Barton321]

People should stop doing ‘a day in the life’ videos as professionals cos usually they aren’t reflective of a typical day for that profession and they scream privilege.

So @ProfGrahamTowl and @ProfTammiWalker and David, congratulations on publishing a forensic psychology text without a picture of a) some prison bars, or b) that woman with the sword and scales, but could you just deconstruct what's going here?

[Sam Barton @Sam_Barton321]

@MeatTelecom there’s something up with the game dudes. Many errors, such sadness.

[Sam Barton @Sam_Barton321]

How ridiculous

[Sam Barton @Sam_Barton321]

Feeling like I am shaking off the ‘#impostersyndrome’ as I head in to the final months of my time as an assistant psychologist before #dclin training. But actually, I deserve my accomplishments and I have worked hard for them. We aren’t imposters, it’s just what we’ve been told.

[Sam Barton @Sam_Barton321]

Guuaaaaaaaan!! It is happening. Come September I’ll be training to be a clinical psychologist. Dr Barton is loading… 🤘🤘🤘#dclin #dclinpsy

[Sam Barton @Sam_Barton321]

@TheSleepReport Of course, it is so disappointing to see that the profession that you aspire to work in continues to take advantage of those in more powerless positions driving a bigger wedge between the social classes

[Sam Barton @Sam_Barton321]

Anyone who charges aspiring clinical psychologists for a subscription fee to offer advice with no assurances for success is explorative. #dclin #dclinpsy #aspiringpsychologists

[Sam Barton @Sam_Barton321]

@GarethLuce Absolutely, it’s vile and it negatively impacts the diversity on the programmes that courses should be trying to achieve

A massive thanks to @PrimordialRadio for having us at AGM! We caught up with @sophie_charity, met lots of people interested in us & the ‘Alternative Wellness’ stuff seemed to go down well too! #mentalhealth #music #saturdaynight
