Meet my flatmate Saba, who’s also a first year Trainee Clinical Psychologist on the Oxford Doctorate in Clinical Psychology course 👯‍♂️ Grab a cup of tea and enjoy our Friday night chit chat - and if you manage to reach the end, we’ve included some hilarious bloopers too (yes, psychologists are humans too).

I am starting my first year of the doctorate degree and hoping to document this 3 (+) year journey. I hope to de-mystify the clinical psychology route in the UK, increase the representation of diversity in the field and make Clinical Psychology and Oxbridge feel just a little bit more accessible and human if I can. ☆ Disclaimer ☆ Views and opinions are our own and do not represent the views of the University of Oxford or Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust.
