Why Psychology at the University of Leicester?
I started being interested in Psychology at a young age after reading books like Catcher in the Rye and Perks of Being a Wallflower – both of which have leading characters whom suffer from some sort of trauma or mental illness. Being a film lover too, movies such as Along Came a Spider, Prisoners and […]
Help, I’m an indecisive, soon-to-be graduate!
Last week I had my first wave of panic about my future after I graduate next year. I knew this would happen (probably quite often) in my third year but I still wasn’t prepared. I ended up with about a thousand tabs open (slight exaggeration there. Is it even possible to have a thousand tabs […]

Presentation Topic and Comments on Victim Support Training
