| 0:00.9 | In my 19 years as a therapist, I have failed my clients in a million different ways. |
| 0:06.0 | I have failed to pay attention. I have failed to notice something. I have failed to be compassionate. |
| 0:12.1 | I have failed to meet my ethical responsibilities. There have been so many failures. |
| 0:17.2 | But the most egregious failure of all is my failure to recognize my failures. |
| 0:23.5 | If we as therapists refuse to acknowledge our failures, then that is the most destructive failure |
| 0:29.5 | of all. So in this episode, I plan on reviewing all my failures as a learning exercise. |
| 0:35.6 | But first, let me introduce the podcast. Welcome to the Psychology and Seattle podcast. |
| 0:41.0 | I'm your loyal host, Dr. Kirk Honda. I am Chair of the Couple and Family Therapy Program at |
| 0:46.0 | Antioch University, Seattle. And I'm also a licensed marriage and family therapist. |
| 0:51.1 | This episode is just for patrons of the podcast. So if you're listening to this and you're not a |
| 0:55.6 | patron of the podcast, this episode will end before the content begins. If you want to hear |
| 1:00.8 | the full episode, you have to become a patron of the podcast at patreon.com. |
