As a university undergraduate taking psychology, there haven’t been many opportunities for our volunteer, Claire to go out in the field and interact with people with mental health conditions. In the field of psychology, a Masters degree is required before one can be out in the field. However, she’s been doing a great job in helping Calm Collective run our monthly community event, Calm Circles.
