I have completed a three year BSc in Psychology. This included acquiring basic knowledge across several domains of psychology including personality psychology, cognitive psychology, biological psychology, health psychology and social psychology. Knowledge surrounding mental health wellbeing and mental health disorders was obtained starting off with the basics and proceeding to develop knowledge in therapeutic approaches, psychiatry and meeting the needs of clients. I took modules in research methodologies and completed lab reports which led on to my dissertation of a study on chronic fatigue syndrome/ME. My option modules included two clinical and two language based courses: eating disorders, psychology of intimacy, Level 2 European Spanish and Level 1 British Sign Language. Alongside my degree I was chosen for a Psychology internship within the department, completed my mental health first aid and volunteered as a bazaar mentor delivering a CBT based programme to students. |
