    Big Hearts, Clear Boundaries: Why Caring Deeply Doesn’t Mean Giving Everything

    Welcome back to The Healthy Practice with your brand new host; Lisa O'Rorke. For our first episode of the season, we are sitting down with Dr. Marianne Trent, a clinical psychologist, author and host of the Psychology Actually podcast. We tackle a big question: where is the line between being approachable and oversharing with our clients? Dr Trent shares how she navigates self-disclosure and explains how to bring your authentic self into a session without letting things get leaky or uncontained. We also dive into handling therapy ruptures gracefully, spotting the early warning signs of clinical burnout and why it is completely okay to be friendly without being your clients friend.

    Protecting yourself when Working with Trauma

    In the final episode of our Wellbeing series, Ellie speaks to Dr. Nancy Bancroft about ways to protect yourself when working with trauma. Working with trauma is not without its risks. Many therapists and other professionals who deal with trauma are at risk of developing secondary trauma, and even vicarious trauma long-term. So how can we build methods of protection to keep us safe, whilst pursuing work we are proud of? Ellie and Nancy discuss how she works somatically with clients who have trauma, taking into account their body, physical health, and other elements that make up the whole person in the body. Nancy shares her approaches to trauma, rituals she relies on to help her through sessions, and how she has built a thriving support network for herself as she’s transitioned into independent practice. Dr Nancy Bancroft is a HCPC registered Clinical Psychologist with over 15 years experience working therapeutically with psychological and emotional distress, within NHS, academic and private contexts. She currently runs her clinic The Body in the Mind and is a Specialist Member of The Psychology Co-Operative. You can find out more about Nancy and her work on Instagram and her website.

    Breaking the Taboo; Why Therapists Need Their Own Therapy

    In today’s episode we are approaching a topic some of you may find yourself avoiding; the importance of getting therapy as a therapist.

Patricia is an HCPC registered Counselling Psychologist and Director of Psychology at My Psychology Ireland. Patricia is a firm believer in attending her own therapy, and she shares with Ellie why she believes having your own therapy can make you a better therapist.
