Support and mentoring for aspiring psychologists
I keep this group small enough to give each member the attention they need and deserve, and to help cultivate the environment for a bonded and supportive community.
So, don’t miss out on this window of opportunity whilst numbers allow!
My team and I are here to support you on every step of your journey, as you navigate the application process for courses, then start out on your clinical psychologist training, all the way through to being there for you when you are fully qualified.
What your membership includes:
4 Live Group Zooms every month
Covering a wide range of highly relevant content areas, this is your chance to learn new information and to integrate theory and practice.
You’ll also get chances to ask questions, and to improve your skills in reflection too.
Personal Interaction with Dr Marianne
I personally host at least one of the monthly group Zoom sessions. You can work with me directly, as we improve your skills and knowledge on a variety of topics. We’ll cover increasing your confidence in application forms, interview skills and therapeutic strategies.
Career Development & Application Support
Build your skills and confidence at every stage of your psychology career. Explore over four years of practical sessions on career development, reflective practice, applications and interviews - all available to watch whenever the time is right for you.
Connect & Thrive Community
Build genuine connections in a field that can sometimes feel competitive or isolating. Meet fellow members in our live group sessions, join the optional WhatsApp community, and share encouragement, successes and psychology job opportunities.

Experience & Support
DR MARIANNE TRENT
Founder and Clinical Psychologist
As the founder of this membership, I am here to guide you through the essential stages of your journey. Each month, I lead sessions tailored to key times of the year, such as application and interview season, and focus on important clinical theory, process and practical skills.
With a background in supporting aspiring psychologists, I'm passionate about helping you build your confidence, deepen your knowledge, and feel prepared for every step ahead.
DR DAN EDGE
Clinical Psychologist and Resident Research Tutor
Research can feel intimidating, but it becomes far more manageable when it is explained clearly. Dr Dan Edge leads practical teaching and research clinics covering topics such as research methods, multiple regression, complex group comparisons and communicating research effectively.
Members can bring questions to the live sessions, submit them in advance or build their confidence in their own time using the replays.
42+ hours of CBT Skills & Formulation
Explore an extensive on-demand library of practical CBT teaching and formulation sessions. Revisit the sessions whenever you want to develop your clinical thinking, refresh your knowledge or prepare for applications, interviews and training.
Reflective Practice Spaces
Join three to four facilitated reflective practice groups each year. These supportive live spaces help you explore your developing professional identity, think through experiences and become a more confident and reflective practitioner.
FEEDBACK
Like all good psychologists, analytics and outcomes are so important to me! I need to know and demonstrate that what we do in the membership is pitched appropriately and gets results! That’s why, after each zoom session, members are sent a feedback survey to complete.
Each completed survey gets you one entry into the monthly draw to win a £20 e-voucher for your choice of retailer, a 20 mins 1:1 with Marianne OR you can choose to pay it forwards to provide a free month of membership for someone with a high contextual admissions score.

GROUP MEMBER TESTIMONIALS
Kind Words
"I joined with the intention of developing my confidence and getting an Assistant Psychologist post and, thanks to the content in the membership, that is exactly what I have done! The content is really good and helped me in preparing for applications and interviews.”
Thank you for the valuable help and support from you and all the guests and regulars running the weekly ‘Marianne Monday’ evenings! :) They absolutely supercharged me and my performance in interviews for thinking about research, formulation and reflecting! Which led to a (finally!) successful year for me getting onto the DClinPsy in Glasgow after 4 yrs of applying, and a few interviews up and down the UK over that time! Thank you! I loved the membership and would recommend it to all!”
“Marianne is one of the most compassionate people I have come across! I love how authentic she is in her approach to genuinely want to help aspiring psychologists and see us thrive. The recent interview roleplay sessions in particular really confirmed this for me. She offered constructive feedback in a way that wasn’t judgmental or looking down on people’s answers. She always pointed out the positives too - a boost we all need in a field full of imposter syndrome, competitiveness and never really feeling good enough."
"I'm finding everything so, so useful. Being at uni, especially on a conversion course, my own experiences are that everything is so focused on the academic side and fulfilling the BPS curriculum. The membership is giving me really valuable insights into the practices of a psychologist and a framework for thinking about them ahead of searching for relevant jobs and working towards the doctorate."
The value of a longer-term commitment
The positive results you desire and deserve are much more likely to come from consistent practice, support and development. Week in. Week out.
