A career in psychiatry is about people – the people we work for, the people we work with, and the people we want to become.

"I am proud to be an Allied Health Professional and to be part of a group of professionals that has a unique set of skills supporting people with their recovery and wellbeing"
Sofia Ivarsson | Professional Lead Occupational Therapist, Brighton and Hove CDS
"There is a drive to involve more nurses in research, an area that has been predominantly one for psychologists. A stimulating and fascinating rolling module of ‘research for nurses’ motivates nurses to think about where they work and the changes they may want to bring about, or issues they may want to know more about and develop. Nurses are encouraged to put their ideas into action with full support from the nursing education department."
Jayne Herriott | Lead Nurse for the Specialist Perinatal Mental Health Service
"We are really committed to supporting our social workers and the vital role they can play in the lives of people who use our services. As a social worker in mental health your perspective is very holistic, looking at the whole person: their story and the circumstances in which they find themselves. The work that we do can help people to manage the social factors in their lives - like relationships, money and housing and thereby empower individuals to lead fulfilling, independent lives within their community."
Bryan Lynch | Director of Social Work
"Rewarding, challenging and diverse’ best describe my career as an Occupational Therapist"
Louise Vinton | Professional Lead Occupational Therapist – Adult Mental Health Services
