What does your ideal day as an EP look like? @fionacoley.bsky.social @drfergy.bsky.social @jgetaylor.bsky.social @aspenpsychology.bsky.social @edpsy.bsky.social @ariseedpsych.bsky.social @maxpurpose.bsky.social @suedpsy.bsky.social @sopheldertep.bsky.social @pippatep.bsky.social
Last month in group supervision, we explored what our ideal day as Psychologists would look like.
It won't surprise you to know supervision was in mine!
What about your ideal day? What would it consist of?
