The process of the inpatient care team referring to a community-based care team is a well-founded configuration in the provision of health care services. Often this is beneficial, as different services often require certain skill sets and specialist expertise such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy teams, specialist challenging behavior teams, specific physical condition teams or neuro-rehabilitation teams in the community. However, some disciplines also lend themselves to crossing specialties as they have transferable skills applicable across systems. It is well established that clinical psychology is one such discipline, as it provides transferable expertise and core clinical competencies across different settings. The posts described in this chapter draw upon transferable expertise of clinical psychological assessment, formulation and intervention between acute inpatient and community mental health. Indeed this is not exclusive to the profession of clinical psychology; the same is recognized in other mental health professions including psychiatry and some forms of mental health nursing and occupational therapy.
Sustaining a healthy workforce
Published in Joe Kai, Chris Drinkwater, Primary Care in Urban Disadvantaged Communities, 2018
Stress management techniques and extra team support at certain times of our lives are likely to help most people stay healthy within the workplace. However, at times a proportion of staff will need more professional help to stop problems developing more seriously or to alleviate them when they become clinical conditions. Whether this is counselling for more focused problems such as divorce or family problems, or whether the services of clinical psychology, psychotherapy or psychiatry are necessary will depend upon the severity of the problem.

All procedures were approved by the Florida State University Institutional Review Board before beginning the study. Participants began by completing the informed consent form and the Concern Over Mistakes subscale of the Frost MultiDimensional Perfectionism Scale (FMPS-CM). If they scored at least 29 on the FMPS-CM (i.e., one standard deviation above the mean; Shafran et al., 2017), a clinical interview was performed. Diagnostic interviews were conducted by a doctoral student in clinical psychology. If they did not meet exclusionary criteria after the clinical interview, they were enrolled in the study and completed surveys. Participants were then randomly assigned to the intervention or waitlist control group. Those who were in the intervention group were presented the rationale for the treatment and completed the exposure tasks five times within a two week period, after which they completed post-treatment measures. Those in the waitlist control group returned two weeks after the baseline visit to complete post-treatment questionnaires.
“When a topic looks good on my c.v., I move on”: Esther Rothblum’s career in groundbreaking research

But we did publish that first study. When I then went to graduate school in clinical psychology at Rutgers University, I did a lot of research on depression, looking at how to measure it because depression is an internal feeling and consequently not something that can be observed. I also did research on the treatment of depression. All the faculty at Rutgers were men except for one woman who taught child psychology. And I had very few classmates who were women in those days (psychology now is a feminized profession, meaning that the vast majority of Ph.D.s go to women). Then I did my clinical internship in Jackson, Mississippi. I mean, you can’t go much further south than Mississippi. It was really an interesting experience. About half of us interns were women, half were men. None of my clinical supervisors were women and all the male supervisors were white. You can imagine that there was a lot of racism in Mississippi.

A UK audit of clinical psychology services for people with low mood post-stroke found that monitoring and advice were the most common outcomes of mood assessment, with less than half of the audited patients receiving psychological interventions [8]. However, the National Clinical Guideline for Stroke [9] highlights that psychological care after stroke should be multifaceted, involving health, social care and voluntary agencies. It recommends that people with stroke should be offered psychological support regardless of whether they exhibit specific mental health or cognitive difficulties, advocating a stepped care model to select the level of appropriate support. Yet a Cochrane systematic review on the effectiveness of psychological therapies for post-stroke depression identified that most studies excluded people with aphasia [10]. Therefore, there is a pressing need to evaluate interventions that aim to improve psychosocial wellbeing for people with stroke, and people with aphasia in particular.
