Overview
We are a friendly and supportive staff team, which we feel is integral to creating a collaborative and collegiate learning environment.
This is important for assisting trainees through what can be a challenging experience at times but also, we believe, in facilitating trainees to become unique and highly competent clinical psychologists, where personal values and social and cultural background can be integrated with professional development.
