Attending my first ever @CritHealthPsych conference #ISCHP2025@uniofgalway was unforgettable.
It was an academic, emotional, and personal experience that made me reflect deeply on psychology, justice, and community. A thread 🧵👇
#PhDLife
1️⃣ How far we’ve come—and how far we need to go.
I was in awe of the critical work on abortion, Indigenous rights, LGBTQIA health, & more. Psychology was used to liberate—not just observe.
But we must still do better at centering lived experiences.
#ISCHP2025
3️⃣ Finding my academic home.
As a qualitative researcher, I’m used to defending my work in a positivist space.
But here? No need to explain. No need to translate. I found a community who spoke my language.
I felt seen.

I also got to:
📝 Present my first PhD research
🎙️ Join a roundtable on positionality
📊 Share our study on intersectional stigma
Thank you, #ISCHP2025, for a space where psychology is not just science—but activism, care & reflection. 💙
