Guys, there’s a new psychology web series and I’m absolutely here for it! The range & depth of the conversations in this series is just *chefs kiss* I’ve shared my thoughts on a couple of episodes and one is available to watch now. EP2: The Psychology Behind PTSD (in the ends)

We are officially a multi-award winning organisation!!!! Thank you so much to the @InsideOutUK_ team for acknowledging us as *Community organisation of the year*✨💜

We're thrilled that @Kadra_A_, Associate Director of Policy, won @InsideOutUK_'s award for Community Contribution last week! 👏🤩 Congratulations Kadra - we're delighted to see this recognition of your incredible contribution to policy change and fighting mental health injustice.

Congrats to @NDodzro and #JodenJoseph from the team for taking home Therapist of The Year and Mental Health Advocate of The Year at the @InsideOutUK_ awards last week 🙌🏽Looking sharp! We see and appreciate you, blessed to have you as a part of the team 💛

The @InsideOutUK_ award was amazing last night. Congratulations to @LeilaLawton3 and @NDodzro for being the recipient of the Therapist of the Year award. Very well deserved. Thanks to @nessabanks_ for making this possible.

Looking for panellists for a Black History Month event I’m putting together. The theme is celebrating our sisters, so would love to highlight Black Women who have blazed a trail. Suggestions welcome. PAID!

⚠️ If you are a (mental health) clinician, this is a must-read for you! Please, book some time to give it proper attention, because this is too important. If you know a clinician, send this to them. Link: doi.org/10.1080/105033…

Our event 'Overcoming Imposter Syndrome and Setting Boundaries' is off to a great start thanks to @GinaJaay @nessabanks_ and our current speaker @Tiwalowla ❤️

“For Black Boys” is one of the most incredible pieces of art that I’ve ever seen. It really needs a longer West End run! I do hope that it will return because it was so funny yet beautifully and painfully moving! Just 10/10!!! 🥹🔥

They said it was the best Social Work Day they’ve had! We spent World Social Work Day with the social care team at Kingston Council. It was such an honour to celebrate the amazing work of social workers & discuss the beauty, value & power of diversity and joint social action ❤️

At Kingston we are dedicated to supporting and celebrating our social care teams- that is why this World Social Work Day we collaborated with @InsideOutUK_ to celebrate diversity and joint social action in the social work sector.

Having a Black therapist has been essential to my growth as a Black woman… You mean to tell me I can sit in my bonnet, use colloquialisms, and be understood in what I’m trying to communicate?!?! It’s been a true relief

A case study in why this isn't unconscious bias, it's pure true racism. Thank you FA etc for the case study material
