Hello. I am so excited to be finally bringing this podcast to the world.
What follows here in this short episode is an outline of what you can expect from the podcast going forward.
As I say in the intro to each episode, the show is “a curation of interesting metaphors, models and images discovered or manifested in my work as a psychotherapist”. So if I’ve read or heard a funky idea, I’ll lift it from the book or the talk or the session, and offer it to you. It’s like I’ve run a highlighter through my training and knowledge so you can be presented with a summary of my brain!!
The thing is, being a psychotherapist means you encounter loads of really interesting ways of looking at life. Granted, it’s often ways of looking at life’s struggles… but anyway, it occurred to me one day that if I could find a way to share some of them it might be interesting for other people. It may even be helpful. (Side note: although may be helpful, it is not intended to be a substitute for therapy. There is no shortcut to the valuable work that goes on in the consulting room.)
And that’s the important thing. This podcast might make you marvel at how clever and creative some people are in how they manage to explain in words some really complex stuff, or it might make you see some popular media and well-known stories through a different lens… But it is unlikely to fix you!
Rest assured, if the idea comes from someone else I will always credit that person, and there is definitely water-tight confidentiality for my clients.
