    Why Do I Need to Learn Research in The Helping Profession?

    Why research is important to the helping professions. Research is important for clients, for practitioners and politically to continue to demonstrate that the role they do changes lives. Research provides evidence for the range of issues where therapy can be effective and the positive outcomes for clients. It also develops a capacity in you for the formulation of predictions to be tested.   Make sure you subscribe to the podcast and you can also follow us on LinkedIn and FaceBook Mental Health Support in Australia If you require urgent medical support call 000 Call Lifeline if you are experiencing a personal crisis and finding it difficult to cope with your situation.

    Why You Need to Develop a Skill of Self-Reflection for Practise!

    In this enlightening episode, we dive into the critical importance of developing self-reflection skills in the field of psychology. Our discussion is structured around several key themes that are essential for both current and prospective psychology students, as well as practicing psychologists. We explore how psychologists can apply their knowledge and skills in a manner that is reflexive, culturally appropriate, and sensitive to the diversity of individuals. This involves a deep understanding of cultural contexts and the ability to adapt practices to meet the unique needs of diverse populations. The episode highlights the significance of strong interpersonal skills and effective teamwork in the practice of psychology. We discuss strategies for improving these skills and the impact they have on client outcomes and professional collaborations. We provide an in-depth look at Gibbs' Reflective Cycle, developed by Graham Gibbs in 1988. This framework offers a structured approach to learning from experiences through six stages: Description, Feelings, Evaluation, Analysis, Conclusion, and Action Plan. We discuss how this cycle can be used to enhance self-reflection and continuous improvement in professional practice Our conversation covers the inherent requirements necessary for successfully completing a psychology program. These requirements span eight domains: ethical behaviour, behavioural stability, legal compliance, communication, cognition, relational skills, reflective skills, and sustainable performance. We emphasise the importance of these skills, values, and behaviours in ensuring the safety and wellbeing of both the practitioner and their clients. Tune in to this episode for a comprehensive discussion on the need to develop a skill of self-reflection and its vital role in the practice of psychology. Whether you're a student, a practicing psychologist, or simply interested in the field, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice on enhancing your reflective practice.
