Show Notes for The Aspiring Psychologist Podcast Episode: On Becoming Boundaried & Seeking Support - Marianne's Summer Soundbites – 7

Thank you for listening to the Aspiring Psychologist Podcast.

Welcome to the last of my Marianne’s Summer Sound Bites! This series is slightly shorter, but packed full of important, smaller topics, to help you stay on track over the busy summer period. I hope you find this helpful, no matter where you are in your journey in becoming an aspiring psychologist – whatever this may look like for you!

Today’s episode focusses on another 2 vital steps when thinking about being an aspiring qualified psychologist. The importance of boundaries and how to navigate this as well as supervision, plus a lovely analogy to help you think about reducing burnout.

Application season is now upon us! In today’s episode, I go over the dates of another series that has been super helpful for those thinking about doctorates and further qualifications, the compassionate Q&A sessions! There are also a few other helpful tools to make the most of your applications and all the resources I have to offer, so listen along! I hope you find it useful in your application as you journey your way through the steps in becoming an aspiring psychologist.

I’d love any feedback you might have, and I’d love to know what your offers are and to be connected with you on socials so I can help you to celebrate your wins!
