IN THE MEDIA: Highlights

Over the past 12 months, our President Dr Marjorie Collins has done an amazing job at getting the voice of Clinical Psychology into the Media around the country.  Below is a snapshot of just some of the media outlets she has featured in.

More recent media activity:

On 9 May 2023, Marjorie attended a busy #MeetTheMedia event designed to induct attendees to ‘what the media want’. This ticket was free, as premium members of Media Stable.

This is billed as Australia’s leading media introduction event, designed to bring the decision-makers of media together with the experts and leaders of industry to better understand each other. I met Senior Producers, Editors, Chiefs of Staff, Presenters, and Journalists who are the gatekeepers of their mediums, learning what they look for in a story, how best to pitch a story, the preferred way to contact desired media, what the media expect from us and what to expect from the media.  This event helped to build some authentic relationships with the media.
