Loved having the opportunity to sit down with MindFriendMedia to talk about all things Educational Psychology. Looking forward to sharing with you soon!
Some lovely feedback from a session I recently delivered 😊
An area of my practice that I’ve continued to develop this year is direct work with parents. I love being able to support parents to understand behaviour and provide useful strategies and frameworks that support positive change. A really important part of EP practice! 😊
It would be fab if colleagues could share this with their teams and networks 🙏🏻

At #PositiviTEA yesterday I mentioned the HCPC audit. We are due for renewal and e mails / texts should have been sent. They do not seem to have sent e mails out about CPD audit. If you log onto HCPC renewal will be red, CPD will be green if you haven’t been audited and red if you have. #edpsychs
