EBI-ADHD: Interventions for ADHD | Evidence Matrix A comprehensive scientific platform synthesizing evidence from clinical trials for ADHD interventions.

Volunteering for a bereavement charity once a week is a nice weekly reset and reminder of why I do my job. Made a mother quite emotional explaining this theory earlier. Always resonates with me #edpsychs

Got curious and read James Clear’s first newsletter. He ended with this: β€˜How long will you put off what you are capable of doing just to continue what you are comfortable doing?’ Ouch. Made me think of my to-do/to-try list that’s been sitting there forever… Maybe it’s time to finally start?

Came across this for deciding on new professional opportunities, and it really made me think! A straightforward way to focus on what truly matters instead of saying yes to everything. Sharing the framework here in case it’s helpful to others too. Source: The 5 Types of Wealth, p.113. #edpsychs

I registered with the HCPC after becoming a chartered psychologist with the BPS. The process was straightforward: just forms and documentation. The BPS and HCPC websites have clear instructions – hope you find it all manageable!
