We are pleased to support students studying Psychology and related disciplines and welcome student placements within our clinic.
Placement students are offered meaningful opportunities to observe clinical practice and, with appropriate consent, may accompany members of the clinical team during assessments and appointments. This helps ensure their learning is thoughtful, reflective, and grounded in real-world clinical work.
Students are supported within a professional and ethical environment and benefit from observing multidisciplinary working, clinical decision-making, and therapeutic approaches in practice.
