We’ve had the benefit and opportunity of learning from a wide range of Academic and Clinical Practice routes.

There is enormous value in the Degrees, which we are grateful for. Yet from a real-world, working with clients towards their goals perspective – we have also selected courses and trainings that have delivered hugely valuable skillsets too.
