At See Hear Speak, we are committed to fostering the development of early-career psychologists and university placement students as well as psychologists already established in their career who are passionate about child psychology and assessment. Our comprehensive supervision program is designed to guide and support emerging professionals as they develop their expertise in working with children and their families. We emphasise a holistic approach, ensuring that not only the child is at the centre of care but also that parents and families are actively involved. By collaborating closely with families, we provide the education, guidance, and support needed to create consistency and a strong foundation for the child’s progress.

Our supervision program includes:

• One-on-one guidance from experienced child psychologists, providing case consultation, feedback, and mentoring.

• Opportunities to observe and participate in a range of child psychology assessments and therapeutic interventions for issues such as behavioural challenges, anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, cognitive and learning difficulties and functional capacity.

• A focus on developing clinical skills in areas like building rapport and engagement with children and parents, Cognitive-Behavioural therapy, ACT therapy, and family therapy skills such as Attachment-Based Family Therapy.

• Support in developing case formulation, treatment planning, and reflective practice to enhance clinical judgment and confidence.

• Ongoing professional development in ethical practice, client engagement, and evidence-based techniques.

For university placement students, we offer structured learning experiences tailored to their level of study, including real-world exposure to clinical settings, while ensuring a supportive and educational environment.

Our goal is to equip early-career psychologists, established psychologists and placement students with the tools, knowledge, and confidence they need to thrive in the field of child psychology.

Being a child psychologist is a multifaceted, rewarding and highly impactful career path. Childhood is a period of rapid emotional, social, and cognitive growth and child psychologists play a crucial role in helping children and families navigate challenges during these critical developmental stages to support their development, mental health, and well-being. The role is diverse and requires adaptability in working with each child, young person and family’s unique needs and strengths. Being a child psychologist requires skills to connect with children and young people of various ages, by engaging with them in creative and interactive ways. It also involves building skills in working with multiple stakeholders including parents, teachers, occupational therapists, speech pathologists, GP’s and Paediatricians just to name a few!

Becoming a child psychologist requires extensive education and training, typically involving at least six years of study, supervised practice, and continued learning. The role is intellectually engaging and requires staying updated on the latest research in therapeutic techniques and developments in this rapidly evolving field.

While a career in child psychology can be challenging it is a great choice for those with a natural passion for helping children and families overcome challenges and reach their potential.
