👉 Ready to Rise: 1:1 Mentoring for Aspiring Psych

The Aspiring Psychologist: Ready to Rise

A 12-month premium mentorship for aspiring psychologists ready to grow with confidence, strategy, and compassionate support.

LET'S GET STARTED

Hi! I'm

Dr Marianne Trent

I’m a Clinical Psychologist, author, podcast host, and the founder of The Aspiring Psychologist — but more importantly, I’m someone who remembers exactly how it feels to be in your shoes.

I created this space to offer the kind of support I wish I’d had when I was navigating the competitive, confusing world of psychology careers. I know how much heart, effort, and self-doubt can go into this journey and I want to help you walk it with more clarity, confidence, and compassion.

Through my books, podcast, and online community, I’ve helped thousands of aspiring psychologists feel less alone and more empowered in their careers. And now, with Ready to Rise, I’m offering a more personal, in-depth way to support your growth.

If you’re ready to go further with expert guidance in your corner, I’d be honoured to walk alongside you.

You’re smart, capable, and deeply passionate about psychology.
But let’s face it, the path to a successful career in clinical psychology isn’t always straightforward.

Self-doubt creeps in.
Rejections sting.
And sometimes, through no fault of your own, you just might not be surrounded by the right people or opportunities to help you grow.

You’re left wondering if you’re doing enough or even the right things at all.

Ready to Rise is a high-touch mentorship meaning you’ll get personal, consistent support from me throughout our time together, not just a one-off call or occasional check-in.
Because you don’t have to figure it all out alone.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

It’s completely normal to have questions before making a commitment like this.
Here are answers to some common queries to help you make an informed decision.

🌍 What if I’m not based in the UK?

No problem at all — this offer is open globally! If you’re outside the UK, you’ll receive digital access to the Tricky Brain Course instead of the physical kit, and your 1:1 sessions will still be held over Zoom as normal. The signed book copies are UK-only, but the support and transformation are just as powerful wherever you are in the world.

📅 Can I use all my sessions sooner than 12 months?

Yes! While your sessions are valid for 12 months, you can absolutely use them sooner if you'd prefer a more intensive burst of support. We’ll work together to space them in a way that fits your needs and schedule.

Please note that Marianne’s availability is on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings (UK time), and all bookings are subject to availability.

🌱 Is this right for me if I haven’t had an AP role yet?

Absolutely. Whether you’re applying for AP roles, gaining experience, or preparing for training, this programme is designed to meet you where you are. You don’t need to have “ticked every box” to deserve support — in fact, this might be the exact thing that helps you get there.

⏳ What happens after 12 months?

Your access to sessions, WhatsApp support, and the membership ends after 12 months — but by then, you’ll have made real progress in your confidence, clarity, and career direction.

If you’d like to continue receiving support, there are a couple of options (subject to availability):
– You can join The Aspiring Psychologist Membership on a monthly or longer-term basis
– Or, if it feels like the right fit, you’re welcome to rejoin Ready to Rise for another transformative year

Either way, you don’t have to go it alone. I’ll be here if and when you need me. 💙

🕰️ When will Sessions be?

Membership sessions usually take place on Monday evenings (UK time).
Your 1:1 sessions as part of Ready to Rise can be booked in with Marianne on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday mornings (UK time) via Zoom.

If you're outside the UK, we’ll do our best to find a time that works across time zones.

💳 Is the Ready to Rise payment plan a flexible monthly membership?

No! Ready to Rise is a 12-month contractual programme, not a month-to-month membership. By choosing the payment plan, you're agreeing to pay the full programme fee of £2400, spread across 12 monthly installments of £200. These payments are NOT optional and cannot be stopped early, even if you leave the programme or use all your sessions before the year ends.

✨ Want to settle early? No problem! If you'd prefer to pay the remaining balance in full at any point, just get in touch and a settlement invoice can be arranged.

If you're looking for something more flexible, consider:

Booking ad hoc 1:1 sessions with Dr Marianne Trent at £180 per hour
Joining the Aspiring Psychologist Membership on a rolling monthly basis at £30/month
Please note: these flexible options do not include private WhatsApp support or the tailored, long-term mentorship which is exclusively for people in the Ready to Rise Programme.

🧾 Can I use my Ready to Rise sessions for clinical supervision?

The 1:1 sessions in Ready to Rise are designed to provide tailored coaching, mentoring and career support — including interview prep, reflective practice, mindset, confidence-building and personal development.

These sessions are not formal clinical supervision unless specifically agreed in writing by your employing organisation.

If such an agreement is in place, please note that Dr Marianne Trent cannot and does not hold clinical responsibility for your work or client cases.

That said, many members find these sessions incredibly helpful for discussing clinical experiences, increasing their confidence and clarity, and making more informed, reflective decisions.

🧠 Is Ready to Rise a therapy service?

No! Ready to Rise is not a therapy service and is not a substitute for personal psychological therapy.

That said, the support you’ll receive may sometimes feel therapeutic, because Dr Marianne Trent is a qualified HCPC-registered Clinical Psychologist with specialist expertise in trauma, confidence, mindset and reflective practice.

Sessions may explore emotional blocks, unhelpful patterns or limiting beliefs that are affecting your career progression but the focus is always on helping you grow as an aspiring or developing psychologist.

If you’re struggling with mental health or feel you need formal therapy, this programme is not the right route but we can signpost you to support if needed.

🤔 Still have questions about whether Ready to Rise is right for you?

No problem at all, I’d love to help. If you’re unsure whether the programme is a good fit or want to chat things through, you’re very welcome to get in touch.
Just complete this quick form and I’ll be in touch soon:
