  8. Mistakes made and lessons learned

    21 JUL · CONTENIDO EXTRA

    Mistakes made and lessons learned

    In line with Mental Work's aim to shine a light on the important yet under-discussed aspects of being an early-career psychologist, Bron shares the lessons she has learned from a complaint received two years ago. She outlines key knowledge gaps in the hopes that others can avoid her missteps, including understanding transference and countertransference, the impact of personal history and neurodivergence on practice, repairing ruptures, navigating complex ethical situations, and managing emotional dysregulation. Finally, she provides suggestions on how to increase knowledge in these areas, and highlights the need for collegiality amongst psychologists to promote a compassionate space for those still growing in their practice.
