Aspiring Mental Health Careers – January 2025

Posted on 24th January 2025

.

In January, for the fifth consecutive year, the Talent Academy successfully held its ‘Aspiring Mental Health Careers’ event. This virtual event offered young people aged 15 to 20, who reside or study in Lincolnshire, the opportunity to hear from our colleagues working at Lincolnshire Partnership Foundation NHS Trust.

Experts working in the fields of Nursing, Occupational Therapy, Psychological Therapies and Psychology delivered insightful presentations about their work and shared personal stories regarding their career journeys.

Attendees gained valuable insight into the various career paths and engaged with speakers who use their knowledge of how people think and behave to support individuals to live healthy and fulfilling lives.

“I signed up to this event as I was interested in psychology and mental health and just wanted to ensure that a career in this sector is something that I’d enjoy. The event was very educational as it covered a lot of information in a short amount of time. The questions asked by the viewers were also answered in great detail. Overall, I’d recommend this to anyone possibly looking into a career in mental health nursing, social work, clinical psychology etc. as it can be a great indicator of whether or not this sector of work would be right for you.” – anonymous attendee quote
