Neha
University of ReadingBSc Psychology with Professional PlacementHey there! I’m Neha – a British-Indian Psychology student currently on my placement year, working towards my goal of becoming a psychologist and supporting people with mental health challenges. If you have questions about placements, I’ve got you! I’m currently doing one myself and would love to share insights. I also remember how stressful A-levels, UCAS, and even Clearing can feel – I’ve been through it all, so you're definitely not alone. I'm always happy to chat and share my experiences to help make things feel a little less overwhelming. Outside of studies, I’m involved in a few cultural societies on campus, and I can tell you all about the vibrant, diverse community here – from fun events to the best food spots around! I love coffee catch-ups, music, and traveling when I get the chance. Whether it’s about the course, campus life, or anything in between, feel free to drop me a message – I’m here to help! 😊
