Alumni Magazine

In this issue we look at how artificial intelligence and technological innovations are improving the delivery, accessibility and effectiveness of mental health provision. We are proud to showcase alum Megan who successfully launched a mental health app through her company Neurum Health. We also review Pod - Anna Freud’s online outcomes data collection tool for mental health providers – recently upgraded and growing in usage.

We shine the spotlight on three inspirational alumni: Paul Bell and his path to establishing a mental health clinic; Hugh Miller’s experience writing a book about cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) for young people; and Elizabeth Li’s research into epistemic trust. We also feature two new innovative resources that could support you in your work.

International collaboration is the central theme in this issue. Alum Paula Lopez Ramos shares her experience as a student on the MRes in Developmental Neuroscience and Psychopathology (DNP) at Yale University. Find out about Anna Freud's first distance learning programme: PG Diploma in Child and Adolescent Psychology and Neuroscience in Practice (CAPNiP).

Celebrate Anna Freud's 70th anniversary by reflecting on what it has achieved since its inception and how it has evolved to meet the demands of an ever-changing mental health landscape. Follow the interesting journeys of two former students who qualified as Child Wellbeing Practitioners and are now Practice Tutors at Anna Freud.
