Hi Lucy, thanks for taking the time to do this! From an aspiring clinical psychologist currently working in a CAHMS inpatient service for teenagers, I have a few questions - please feel free to answer whichever you feel like.

1. Your intervention sounds really interesting! I also hold an interest in compassionate care and compassion-focused therapy. What will your intervention comprise of, and how are you planning on evaluating it? Do you have any papers published or registered for this yet? I'm keen to have a read!
2. How do you approach self-practice and self-reflection if at all (i.e. outside of teamwork reflective practice and supervision)? Do you take a freeform approach or utilise a framework? Do you write, record, or just think? Has this changed from the early days in your professional development?
3. If you could choose one book (other than your own) to recommend to someone entering the field, what would it be? This can be as loosely or as closely related to the profession as you like.

Thanks in advance! :)
