in2gr8mentalhealth CIC is pleased to welcome third year trainee clinical psychologists with lived experience of mental health difficulties, to host this webinar. They will be speaking about naigating training to be a Psychologist when having lived / living experience of mental health difficulties and are part of a community of mental health professionals with lived / ing experience of mental health difficulties at in2gr8mentalhealth CIC, who are interested in looking into how stigma, power and priviledge operate in the systems around us and shape our experiences for the better or the worse.

They will be speaking into their own experiences, into assumptions, hopes and fears around the topic, including the work that in2gr8menthealth CIC do to demystify 'fitness to practice' fear and the strange idea that having mental health difficulties means that one cannot be a mental health professional. At baseline, we are hoping to remind people to re-humanise the mental health workforce, and challenge systems to flex around the mental health needs of human beings without stigma, as they encounter life during their careerspan.  

This webinar will be recorded and is the property of in2gr8mentalhealth CIC. Recordings may be shared across our website and social media platforms and for marketing purposes. Please hold this in mind regarding your sharing choices during any discussion parts of the webinars you may wish to be involved with.
