In this video, we asked people to send in their assumptions about clinical psychology and clinical psychologists and had an informal chat about whether we agreed with it or not. Totally not factually based or authoritative in any way, just something lighthearted and fun whilst we have our Saturday morning coffee. So grab your cup of tea and enjoy!

☆ About Me ☆
My name's Aika, I'm 23, Hong Kong Chinese & I'm a Trainee Clinical Psychologist at Oxford. I am starting my first year of the doctorate degree and hoping to document this 3 (+) year journey. I hope to de-mystify the clinical psychology route in the UK, increase the representation of diversity in the field and make Clinical Psychology and Oxbridge feel just a little bit more accessible and human if I can.
