There is an extensive structure, from CPD, to events, to day to day processes, which is all aimed at supporting clinicians well, so they can, in turn, support our patients well.

The fact it’s a clinically led service means the company’s heart is in the right place and patients are the utmost priority.
Dr Anna Wachowska, Counselling Psychologist
I joined Psych Health on a part time basis in 2020. At the time I also worked part time for the NHS, and I subsequently made the decision to transition into full time employment with Psych Health as I really appreciated the service’s values and I felt challenged as well as supported, while the clinical work has been diverse and rewarding.
Dr Anna Wachowska, Counselling Psychologist
At Psych Health you are much more connected to the reason you went into this profession in the first place – it’s all about the clients!
Dr Emma Clarke, Counselling Psychologist
Agreeing to the hours I initially requested, which has been vital in achieving my work/life balance, but also allowing me to volunteer for work that interests me, so my weekly schedule has been moulded over time that I can work to my strengths, and in the areas that I perform best in and am passionate about. There’s no need to get myself motivated each day – that’s already been taken care of.
Dr Allison McLaughin, Counselling Psychologist
Psych Health is led by psychologists, and it shows, the support for clinicians is very good and the focus is on delivering good quality work and good outcomes for clients and patients.
