    Ep. 23 | Spirituality in Counselling & Psychotherapy

    Today we are discussing the topic of spirituality. This is a broad topic and one that can sometimes be hard to put into words, so I am delighted to be joined by returning guests, Gael Kilduff and Colm Early who share their perspectives. We discuss some definitions of what spirituality is and explore how it can inform your work as a therapist even if you don’t regard yourself as spiritual or ever sue the work with your clients. We discuss what it means to be truly present with your clients, to...

    Ep. 20 | Being a Counselling & Psychotherapy Graduate

    This episode is about exploring the counselling and psychotherapy graduate experience. We discuss how it can look and feel different for everyone, and how it differs from other professions where the path might be more recognisable. We explore the idea of transitions as you move from being a student with many options to explore e.g., working with an organisation or private practice. When do you finally feel like a ‘real’ therapist? We acknowledge the mixed feelings which may exist as you no lo...
