What Iv learn this week is the amazing support I have around me on this doctorate, from my tutors, fellow trainees and other assistants I connect with such a supportive and non judgemental environment…a real glimmer moment was being told in supervision I am thinking and talking like an EP❤️#edpsychs

Came across @drnaomifisher.bsky.social book which has really helped me with one of my year 1 cases - thank you 👏🏼. My take away are focusing on how the child experiences the world, meeting them where they are at & what needs to change in their environment #edpsychs

Great session on dynamic assessment @edpsydan.bsky.social @edpsy.bsky.social delivered by Fraser Lauchlan … really reignited my spark for it 🧩✨ such a friendly and accessible session nice to see familiar faces too including half the year 1 TEPS at Sheffield 😆 #edpsychs

This is so helpful I seen a TA work beautifully with a little person today who’s response is no to a lot of things - giving them space and autonomy to do it in there own time defo worked well
