LSCFT Pre-Qualified Psychology Group

@daniel_petho @ChrisOliverNHS This looks fantastic Daniel! Congratulations 👏

Workers are the backbone of the NHS. Today I brought the Staff Wellbeing Support Packs developed at the Ormskirk Psychology Team to Chorley! From anxiety to tough times, traumatic events & wellbeing skills, supporting our workers is crucial! @ChrisOliverNHS @LSCFTPreQualPsy

As psychology staff we are often focused on supporting our clients mental health, but it's just as important to protect and look after our own! 💚 #WMHD2023

It's that time of year again! If you are thinking of applying to @LancsDClinPsy this year, the event below is one to check out for all information about the course and a place to ask questions 📢

It's only 1 week to go until our September meeting! We are thrilled to have @BrendanJDunlop1 presenting this month 😁 If you're a pre-qualified member of staff at LSCFT and like the sound of joining us, get in contact with the email below 👇

@LscftL Thank you so much for the recommendations! We will be sure to share them far and wide in the group!

We have shared our ideas - which books would you recommend on this topic?

Calling all our aspiring psychologists!! Don't miss out on this brilliant event tonight from @KingsDClinPsy 📢

If combining a passion for reading and mental health is a topic you're interested in, then the following recommendation might be a great place to start! 📚 Can you name a fictional book which features mental illness as a theme? Perhaps @LscftL can share some ideas!

Happy August Everyone! We're welcoming the new month with another book review 📖 The Gift of Therapy by Irvin D Yalom is a fantastic read for aspiring psychological professionals about building therapeutic relationships. Great for anyone starting their DClin journey this year 🧠

ANNOUNCEMENT! We are excited to return to our online meetings with a special presentation from Dr Jane Bewley from LSCft Moving Well, Chronic Pain and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome services 😁 Join us on 4th August on Teams! 💻

It's been a while but we are back! 📚 Madness Explained asks questions like 'Is madness purely a medical condition that can be treated with drugs?' And 'Is there a clear dividing line between who is sane and who is insane?' Have you read this one? Tell us what you thought!

Wishing every member of our group and the teams we all work within a Happy NHS Birthday! We are truly grateful to have a platform to support the next wave of the psychological workforce coming through Lancashire & South Cumbria and hope we can continue!🥳 #NHS75 #NHSBirthday

Today we are celebrating 75 years of our incredible NHS. The NHS has provided mental and physical health care to people for the last 75 years and we couldn’t be more proud of the work we do. “It's me. It's you. It's us. It's our NHS, in Lancashire and South Cumbria.” #NHS75
