Fabulous team well-being day at The Artery studios. Just what was needed after a challenging year! #HICBT #SelfCareSeptember

Thank you RGS Worcester for inviting me to discuss my role as a CBT Therapist with sixth form psych students. It’s a privilege when people share their stories with you, then help them make sense of their difficulties-I hope I was able to convey what a rewarding profession it is!

You've done us proud, Ruud.
