Staff Testimonials

“My time at LIIA has been amazing. It has challenged me to work in a different way to what I am used to and encouraged me to utilise different skills of a psychologist, such as leadership, teaching and training, that I have not yet had a chance to use.

I think it has been an incredible final year placement and has equipped me well to think about psychology in all aspects, preparing me for qualified life. Being involved in the Your Choice project has been fascinating and I have loved learning about ‘the other side’ (e.g. planning, designing, disseminating) of therapeutic interventions.

The team have all been so great and I have really enjoyed having input on and learning about the different projects at LIIA.”

Amber Qureshi, Trainee Clinical Psychologist on placement with LIIA in 2022/23

“My time at LIIA as an Intelligence Analyst on secondment from Newham has been nothing short of transformative.

Over the past year and a half, I’ve been fortunate enough to witness first hand the warmth and support that define this workplace.

It’s a rarity, one I’ll carry with me as I return to Newham.”

Yee Au, Intelligence Analyst on secondment from Newham Council with LIIA from 2022 to 2024
