Series 2 Episode 2
Sponsored by Bethan Elisa Proofreading (@bethanelisa) and Handmade Home by Ruby (https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/HandmadeHomeByRuby)
In this episode, I talk to Dr. Nicola Canale, an Educational Psychologist who works in South Wales to promote the healthy development of children in their first 1000 days of life using a dyadic and psychology-informed approach.
Nicola and I discuss her journey in psychology which has informed her current innovative approach to practice, including reflecting on her role in inspiring me to pursue a career in Educational Psychology. We discuss the needs of children in their first days and the psychology which EPs can apply to help parents understand and respond to these needs via a multiagency approach. . We consider how the approach can be applied by Educational Psychologists should the opportunity arise.
