To provide insight into the experience of a student placement, here’s what Lois Evans, an MSc Counselling student at Bangor University, had to say about her 12-month placement at MHM Wales:
🔹 Why did you join MHM Wales?
"I joined MHM Wales as I believe there is a lack of mental health support within Wales, and it was great to have the opportunity to work with people living in Wales."
🔹 What did you enjoy most about your placement?
"I was drawn to MHM Wales because I was able to work remotely, which helped me gain invaluable experience."
🔹 How has MHM Wales shaped your future?
"Working with MHM Wales has helped shape how I see my future as a counsellor working remotely."
🔹 What would you tell someone considering MHM Wales?
"I have already encouraged others to apply for a placement with MHM Wales. Nia is absolutely incredible and makes time to ensure we feel supported at all times."
Lois’s reflections highlight how MHM Wales placements provide not just professional experience, but also a sense of purpose, confidence, and clarity about the path ahead.
