Jenny supervises both therapy and dental students at Carlisle, and also visits essential training practices in Morecambe and Blackpool to supervise our students.
Jenny completed her initial degree in 2004, studying to attain a BSc (hons) in psychology. It was following completing this degree that Jenny took a job as a trainee dental nurse in Derbyshire, where she is originally from. Jenny qualified as a dental nurse in 2006, applying to complete the dental therapy diploma at Liverpool in 2009. Jenny worked in corporate practice for ten years, trialling the NHS pilot contract, as well as holding private contracts with a variety of different practices.
Jenny enjoys all aspects of patient care, but is particularly interested in the patient journey, and techniques to overcome dental anxiety. For this reason in 2020 Jenny completed a level 2 certificate in counselling skills and began studying to attain her masters in applications of clinical psychology, which she is due to complete in June 2023.
