As I near the end of my Clinical Psychology MSc and look towards the future of working in mental health, I am increasingly being concerned, disillusioned and unsure about any sort of future employment. Not because I am a bad candidate, a bad student or someone who doesn't care about psychology. I seriously love and care about clinical psychology. Yet there are massive barriers and silly experience requirements baked into clinical psychology that mean the less privileged are less likely to be able to work in mental health than their richer peers. Therefore, in this careers in psychology podcast episode, you'll learn about why am I disillusioned with clinical psychology, how my inability to take unpaid work has limited my career options and how am I dealing with the impracticality of working in clinical psychology. If you want to learn more about working in mental health and finishing a Masters degree then this will be a great episode for you.In the psychology news section, you'll learn about what does caffeine do to the sleeping brain, why Karma isn't always applied evenly, and why aren't we doing more open research?LISTEN NOW!If you want to support the podcast, please check out:Please subscribe to the channel so you don't miss any new episodes.FREE AND EXCLUSIVE 8 PSYCHOLOGY BOOK BOXSET- https://www.subscribepage.io/psychologyboxsetCareers In Psychology: A Guide To Careers In Clinical Psychology, Forensic Psychology and More- https://www.connorwhiteley.net/careers-in-psychology Available from all major eBook retailers and you can order the paperback and hardback copies from Amazon, your local bookstore and local library, if you request it.

In the 1970s and 80s, Caroline Eshghi was a young girl living in Bristol, Somerset, and Wiltshire. From the moment she was born until she ran away at the age of 15, Caroline was beaten, burned and starved by her mother. In May this year, Melanie Burmingham was jailed for 20 months for abusing her daughter more than 50 years ago. Caroline tells Krupa Padhy why she is now petitioning for a change to the law around historical cases that only allows a sentence available at the time of offending. The first malaria treatment suitable for babies has been approved for use. We speak to BBC Africa Health Correspondent Dorcas Wangira in Nairobi to find out how this may empower healthcare workers in the battle against the disease that takes the lives of hundreds of thousands of people each year.One of the key measures that Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood is reported to be considering as part of her Sentencing Bill is a national rollout of drugs that suppress sexual arousal to try and tackle sex offenders. There is currently a working pilot in the South West of England, and several of the clinicians, psychiatrists and forensic psychologists have raised concerns about making such a scheme mandatory. Krupa talks to Don Rubin, Emeritus Professor in Forensic Psychology at Newcastle University, and a consultant to the pilot programme. Fatima Timbo, known as Fats Timbo, is a content creator and comedian who has amassed an incredible 3 million followers on TikTok. Since appearing on TV show The Undateables in 2018, she's also been part of the team bringing us the Paralympics coverage from Paris last year. Born with achondroplasia, a form of dwarfism, she documents her experiences of being - as she describes it - ‘a little person', and now she's sharing her tips for succeeding in a world where it's difficult to be different in her book Main Character Energy: Ten Commandments for Living Life Fearlessly. Presenter: Krupa Padhy Producer: Sarah Jane Griffiths

BAM in the Bones: The Forensic Psychology Behind Barry Morphew's Alleged Murder Plan Description: A woman's bones don't just tell you how she died—they tell you how someone lived. In this case, how a man may have plotted, planned, and executed control with chilling precision. When Suzanne Morphew's remains were found in 2023, they contained traces of BAM, a rare veterinary tranquilizer. Not something you pick up at your local pharmacy. But Barry Morphew had access to it—and knew how to use it. In this episode, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins us to break down what that single forensic detail tells us about intent, mindset, and method. Why choose a sedative instead of brute force? What does it say when someone selects a method that leaves no visible trauma—but leaves behind a chemical fingerprint? We explore the psychology of calculated homicide, the difference between impulsive violence and controlled erasure, and how forensic findings align with behavioral patterns. Barry Morphew may not have left blood at the scene, but prosecutors say he left a behavioral blueprint. This isn't just about BAM—it's about what happens when a person believes they can outsmart the science, and how even the most meticulously planned murder leaves a trail if you know where to look.

The law is out of date on topics regarding how the mind works and how much social influence can sway people to do and believe things that are not common sense. Dr. Cutler has done cutting edge work in forensics and law enforcement analysis. He serves at Fielding Graduate University as both a Professor and Program Director. Social Psychology is one of the pillars of the Mental Health profession. In our current world, so many people are being influenced to believe things that are utterly absurd and follow leaders who are unqualified and even pathological.

He has worked on many publications, including Editor and Author of The APA Handbook of Forensic Psychology, the Encyclopedia of Psychology and Law, Reform of Eyewitness Identification Procedures, Conviction of the Innocent: Lessons from Psychological Research, and five other books.

This week, we hear from Kathryn Rifenbark, the Director for CyberTipline, Public Reports, in the Exploited Children Division (ECD) at the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC). In this talk from the 2024 CESE Summit, she shares about the impact of Sextortion on today's young people and talks about a powerful new service that can be used to help. Self-generated content is a normative behavior of today's youth. But it can have a destructive impact when it's non-consensually shared or when they have been blackmailed or coerced into producing it. Take It Down is a new, anonymous, and free service that can help prevent the spread of online sharing of nude, partially nude, or sexually explicit images or videos of those under the age of 18. This session will provide an overview of Take it Down, operated by the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC). Launched in December of 2022, participants will learn the amazing impact of this global program, how it works and how you can share this resource with children, victims, and families in your community. Kathryn has worked at NCMEC for over 14 years, and in her current position, Kathryn is responsible for enhancing NCMEC's efforts to improve resources for survivors of child sexual abuse material by liaising with law enforcement, victim service providers, and child serving professionals as well as managing the team who processes public CyberTipline reports. She received a Master of Arts in Forensic Psychology and a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology.
