I found out yesterday that I have passed my Systematic Literature Review meaning I have officially passed year 1 of the doctorate!! #dclinpsy #SLR

Such a great feeling to submit my Systematic Literature Review this week to conclude my first year assignments on the doctorate #braintumour #dclinpsy #doctorate

Year 1 teaching on the doctorate ✅ what a year it’s been, I have learnt so much and met some amazing people 💗 #dclinpsy

I’m running the Oxford Half Marathon this year in support of @MaggiesCentres – a charity that does incredible work for people with cancer and their families. If you’re able to donate, it would mean the world 💛 maggies.enthuse.com/pf/sam-r… #OxfordHalf #TeamMaggies

I just wanted to wish everyone interviewing this week at Trent, the very best of luck. Remember that interview outcomes are not a measure of competency and try and see it as a opportunity to show the panel how amazing you are 😃 #dclinpsy #clinicalpsychology

I can’t believe I am already half way through my first year on the doctorate, where has the time gone? 😳🤯 #dclinpsy

I am starting my first placement as part of the #dclinpsy tomorrow within an Adult Community Mental Health Team. I am excited to get back to working clinically again following a huge teaching block of 11 weeks!

Things I have completed in the past 10 days on the #dclinpsy ✅ first role play which was filmed ✅ case formulation presentation ✅ watched back the role play with my cohort ✅ another 40 minute role play which was stop/start So anxiety provoking but so rewarding 🙌🏻

After three weeks of intense teaching on the #dclinpsy I spent the day at @ChatsworthHouse with my best bud 🍂

First day of the #dclinpsy completed ✅ I can now actually call myself a trainee clinical psychologist 😁

Starting my last week as an assistant psychologist today before starting the #dclinpsy it’s so weird to think that I will never be an AP again 😅🥺 sad but very exciting times!

Fascinating talk today with the @bpsofficialdfp by Dr Ryan Agular 👏🏻 #neuropsychology #forensicpsychology nitter.gq/SamRaby7/status/179871…

Listening to @PodcastForensic episode on brain injuries on my commute this morning distracted me from this terrible weather 😭

I am still in disbelief but I am please to announce that I have been offered a place on the Doctorate in Clinical Psychology at the University of Nottingham/Lincoln. It is days like this that make all of the hard work worth it a million times over 🥹🥹

I am really excited because last week I started a new role as an assistant psychologist working within the Parkinson’s Team. I will be working between there and my current role within the MHTR team 🙌🏻 another completely new area for me to experience alongside my current role too!
