@@surlespasdondine oh how exciting! Thanks for letting me know, I don’t go on social media very often!

Just seen that Rowan was born!!! Eek! So happy for you xx

I am living in the uk (british citizen, always lived in England) and I had not heard of that scheme. The economic situation in the UK is not great at the moment and it's getting worse. I don't know what it's like where you are right now, so coming to the uk might still be an improvement or neutral, but just to give you an idea: the official inflation figures are 7-8%, predicted to be 10% by the end of the year. For people with low-medium incomes, inflation is more like 20%, because the prices of basic food items are going up much faster than the prices of more expensive things. For example toothpaste went up from £1 to £1.20, milk went up from £0.90 to £1.10. A lot of supermarkets are completely discontinuing their cheaper range of basic foods like pasta. So the cheep pasta you used to buy just does not exist any more, you have to buy the more expensive pasta. The minimum wage in the UK is not enough to live on. Many families are having to choose whether to eat or whether to have heating in their house. There is a benefit system that pays some money to people on low incomes, people who do not have jobs, and disabled people. It does not pay enough. People are being left to slowly starve to death. I don't know about that specific immigration scheme, but as a newly arrived immigrant, you would probably not be able to claim any benefits. Housing is very expensive. Housing in London is even more expensive. If you do not have a very good reason to be in London, it is probably better to not live in London. Demand for therapists is high, because basically everyone was traumatised by the pandemic. About half of all young people had anxiety and/or depression even before the pandemic. The NHS does employ some therapists, but most people who need therapy cannot get it on the NHS. The NHS likes to send people to CBT. If you are a Cognitive Behavioural Therapist working in the NHS, you will be referred a lot of patients who would benefit more from trauma therapy, or less structured therapy, but are seeing you because this is all they are allowed to have. You may be referred patients who have chronic pain. People who can afford to pay privately to see therapists will do that. Your job will probably be much less depressing if you practice privately and do not work in the NHS. Psychology Today is a good place to advertise. There is quite a lot of racism, xenophobia, and islamophobia in the UK. How much of that you experience will depend on what you look like, what your accent is like. I know that this is gloomy but this is really the best information I can give you. Maybe other people who have moved to the UK recently can give you information in the immigration system and the High Potential scheme.
