of counselling and psychotherapy. Here are your hosts, Rory Lise Oakes and Ken Kelly.

Hi, I'm Rory. I'm with me as always is Ken. How are you doing, Ken? I'm exceptionally well, Rory.

Thank you very much for asking. I'm grateful to be here. And both Rory and I are grateful

that you have joined us for the counselling tutor podcast. You've joined

us at episode 226 and we've got three topics that we're going to be covering today, starting

with those all-important counseling foundations where we revisit that that underpins counseling. It may be a theory, it may be a practice

element. And today we're looking at a deep theory, and that is the 19 propositions of Carl Rogers.

We then move on to focus on self, and that's where we recognize that you as the practitioner,

you are the heartbeat of your practice. We need to be okay in order to be

there for those that we serve. And today we're going to be speaking about recognizing vicarious

trauma. And that would lead us on to our final topic for today, which is practice matters,

where we dip our toe into anything that is practice related. It can be an element of running the business

of a practice. It can be a presentation we might come across. It may even be the paperwork that we do

as running a practice. But today we look at a certain kind of presentation and how to understand

that better. Rory met up with Quinn Dexter. This is a two-part interview because there's a lot to cover.

And it's all about why we shouldn't use person first language to describe autistic people.
