Paid Clinical Experience Opportunities for Disadvantaged Aspiring Clinical Psychologists
We are delighted to have been awarded funding from Health Education England to support aspiring Clinical Psychologists from under-represented backgrounds through a cohort of Assistant Psychologist posts. These posts will be available at both Cambridge University Hospital (CUH) and the Perinatal Mental Health Team based in Peterborough.
These posts are intended to give opportunities to recent psychology graduates who are eager to develop initial clinical experience as aspiring Clinical Psychologists, who would otherwise be excluded from entering the profession through unpaid work experience (financial exclusion). This scheme is specifically designed to provide valuable experience, insight, and preparation for the next step, such as a substantive Assistant Psychologist post.

In addition to the support and supervision provided in the local service / team, post-holders will be supported in their career development through a series of webinars, peer-reflective practice groups, and opportunities to link with other Assistant Psychologists and Trainee Psychologists employed by the Trust.
