  • A "must-listen" for aspiring psychologists

    I came across this podcast a bit later than most & I had already been through the DClinPsy application process. That being said, I have found it to be really helpful, covering topics that are relevant and useful in a really engaging way. I'd highly recommend to anyone interested in psychology!

  • Perfect for qualified or unqualified

    Marianne is so knowledgable, she is very thorough and has a lovely pace to her podcasts. I listened before I got onto training and still find it helpful. Highly recommend her book also!
