We are 200 away!!!!! Thanks for the signs and shares for the petition to make psychologist a protected title in the UK as it already is in Australia and USA.
Please help share this weekend. We want this by Monday. #ProtectThePsychologistTitleUK
Another week done in the NHS where my embodiment of Kelly G Wilson @kellygenewilson @threads’s slow is fast, fast is slow mantra pays off.

Finished another round of our service #BehaviouralFamilyTherapy training at Waterloo Park in Norwich yesterday. Lovely setting and great group of trainees, a step towards improving care for patients and family members with #psychosis in Norfolk and Waveney 😊 #earlyintervention
