Show Notes
In Episode 342 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics:
- Firstly in 'Ethical, Sustainable Practice', we explore the art of apologising as a counsellor - why it matters, how to do it effectively, and how to avoid making it about yourself.
- Then in 'Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Dr. Ruth Birkbeck about a powerful and often unspoken topic: shame in supervision. We explore what it looks like, how it can impact both supervision and client work, and what can be done to repair it.
- And lastly in 'Student Services', Rory and Ken look at how you can make the most of your academic break with creative learning - offering tips for staying engaged without overwhelming yourself or contaminating your core training.
