Summary
In Episode 197 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast – the first of the new season, as we enter the start of the 2021/22 academic year – presenters Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly introduce two new regular slots:
- 'Counselling Foundations' – this section will explore theory, skills and practice points that underpin counselling practice, and is intended to be useful to both students and qualified practitioners. The focus in this episode is on academic writing in counselling.
- 'Focus on Self' – this recognises the importance of self in counselling training and work, and today looks at who you are in your counselling practice.
Last but not least, in our ongoing 'Practice Matters' slot, Rory interviews Amy Launder on working with moral injury.
