Integrating Genograms and Social Graces - What Is Fitness to Practise? In Episode 366 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 examine the new police guidance on accessing counselling records – essential listening if you work with trauma or abuse. Then, in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Lisa Williams on integrating genograms and social graces to enhance self-awareness and deepen the therapeutic relationship. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken explore fitness to practise - what it means, how to get signed off, and what to do if you're struggling with that final hurdle. New Police Guidance on Accessing Counselling Records [starts at 03:19 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken discuss changes to police procedures on requesting client therapy notes, exploring new police guidance on accessing counselling records and what this means for practitioners working with victims of abuse or trauma. Key points discussed include: New guidelines in England and Wales mean police cannot routinely request counselling notes without meeting the criteria of necessity, proportionality, and relevance. Requests must now be authorised at the Chief Inspector level – no longer standard procedure in criminal investigations. The guidance stems from campaigns around violence against women and girls, and aims to encourage more victims to seek justice. Clients' therapeutic privacy is recognised as essential to healing; invasive requests may have deterred survivors in the past. While the guidelines currently apply only in England and Wales, they may impact online practitioners working cross-border. Integrating Genograms and Social Graces [starts at 24:51 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Lisa Williams about using genograms and social graces as reflective tools to understand both client context and practitioner bias. Key points from this conversation include: Genograms map relational and social histories, helping to uncover patterns, influences, and intergenerational dynamics. Social graces or ‘Social GGRRAAACCEEESSS' (an acronym for aspects like gender, race, class, and age) deepen understanding of cultural positioning and identity. Integrating the two tools enables richer self-reflection and enhances work with clients from diverse backgrounds. These tools are valuable in supervision, personal therapy, case formulation, and even training workshops. Practitioners can use genograms to explore their own history and biases, bringing greater awareness to the therapeutic encounter. Lisa's CPD lecture offers practical examples and updated symbolic representations, including inclusive gender markers. What Is Fitness to Practise? [starts at 46:44 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore what ‘fitness to practise' means in counselling training and why it's a critical step before starting client work. Key points include: Fitness to practise is a tutor's professional judgement that a student is ready to work ethically and safely with clients. It's based on observed skills, theoretical understanding, and personal development – not just academic performance. The letter of fitness to practise is often required by placements and supervisors before a student begins seeing clients. Not passing the first time is not uncommon and does not mean failure – students are usually re-assessed after additional development. A refusal or delay may highlight areas needing growth, such as emotional readiness, ethical awareness, or communication skills. Receiving the letter often boosts student confidence and marks a rite of passage into the practitioner role.

Ireland's only all-island angel investment syndicate, AwakenAngels, has returned from its latest United States trade mission, having secured a strategic partnership with global organisation Women in Innovation (WIN) to accelerate the number of women becoming early-stage investors. Through the partnership, the syndicate will educate women working across the globe in innovation, technology, finance, and enterprise to become active angel investors through participation in its AwakenAngels Academy. The partnership provides WIN's 6,000 members worldwide with access to the AwakenAngels Academy. The CPD-accredited programme is designed to equip women with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to invest in early-stage companies, including those led by Irish women. WIN members will join the next AwakenAngels Academy throughout 2026. The first cohort commences on 17th February, with a limited number of sponsored places still available for registration for women interested in learning more about angel investing at awakenangelshq.com. Formed in 2023, AwakenAngels recently revealed that it has already helped eight portfolio companies, all members of its sister all-island founder community, AwakenHub, secure more than €4.3M in investment. Portfolio companies include Gigi Supplements. The company, which won the InterTradeIreland Seedcorn competition, has just completed a €1.5M investment round and is now stocked in over 200 retail outlets, including Boots and Holland & Barrett stores across Ireland. Another four syndicate deals are set to close in the coming weeks. The new partnership was announced in New York at a reception at the British Consul General's residence, attended by senior diplomatic representatives, including Deputy Irish Consul General Roisin Leonard and Deputy British Consul General Mel Lawrence. The event was one of a series organised as part of AwakenHub and AwakenAngel's fourth St Brigid's Day Trade Mission, during which 13 women founders from NI and ROI pitched asks ranging from £1.5M to £7M. New research The agreement follows research highlighted by Chloe Alana Williams, co-lead of WIN's London chapter and founder of 8TH DAY, which found growing numbers of professional women are seeking alternative routes to investment advice and capital deployment. The findings cite low levels of trust in traditional banking and financial institutions. Instead, many are turning to peer-led networks and education-driven communities to guide their investment decisions, such as AwakenAngels. The Hidden Women Report's findings show 89% of the 2700 women surveyed feel it's important to be financially independent, rising to 92% among women 45+. Speaking about the partnership, Denise McQuaid, Cofounder and Director of Investor Relations, AwakenAngels, said: "The recent research by Chloe Williams, leader of the London WIN chapter, highlights the very real opportunities that exist for founder and angel investment communities like AwakenAngels and AwakenHub globally, and every woman who wants to have a bigger say in how she deploys her capital and owns her financial future. "This partnership is also very important news for women founders globally. Access to capital remains one of the biggest barriers to growth, and this collaboration with WIN will deliver a new global pipeline of informed, values-aligned women investors who actively want to invest into early-stage businesses worldwide. "By connecting women in innovation, finance, enterprise, and technology with the AwakenAngels Academy, we are turning their expertise and influence into ownership, and ensuring more women are at the investment table shaping the future of economies at home and around the world." Amanda Ramos, Chief Executive of WIN, said: "At WIN, we believe that true innovation requires a seat at every table, especially the one where financial decisions are made. This partnership with AwakenAngels is a vital step in evolving our members from industry practitioners to influential...

UK Dentists: Collect your verifiable CPD for this episode here >>> https://courses.dentistswhoinvest.com/smart-money-members-club———————————————————————Rumblings about UK reforms to restrictive covenants are getting louder, and the stakes for dentistry are real. We dive straight into how non‑competes work today, where courts draw the line on “reasonableness,” and why a simple radius and duration no longer capture how patients choose their dentist. With expert legal and brokerage insight, we unpack what could happen if the UK edges toward a California‑style model that voids employee non‑competes but leaves non‑solicit and confidentiality on the table.We explore the messy frontier where law meets real‑world behaviour: proving solicitation in an era where patients follow clinicians on Instagram, not clinic websites. A billboard aimed at former patients looks like a breach; a quiet bio update probably does not. That nuance matters for associates planning moves and for principals trying to protect goodwill. We map out what is enforceable now, why “or” clauses (non‑compete or non‑solicit) are treated separately, and how injunctions and loss drive remedies rather than flat “fines.”Then we turn to valuations and risk. If non‑competes weaken, concentrated revenue becomes a liability. Buyers will price in the chance that a high‑grossing associate can walk down the street, while sellers will need to prove income resilience. We share practical strategies: spread production across more clinicians, invest in practice‑level brand and patient experience, tighten confidentiality and data controls, and ensure every associate has a clear, reasonable agreement. For principals exiting, paid non‑competes tied to consideration typically hold more weight than employment‑style restraints and can still secure value if drafted well.Nothing is final yet, but waiting is not a strategy. Audit your contracts, reduce key‑person dependence, and build systems that make patients loyal to your practice, not just one provider. If the law shifts, you will be ready. If it does not, you will still own a stronger, more resilient business.Enjoyed this conversation? Follow, share with a colleague, and leave a quick review to help more dentists find practical legal and valuation insight.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

Business Owners have plenty of challenges. We thought it would be helpful to invite Bill Squires to share his knowledge of those challenges, and more importantly, what to do about them in the next 100 days. Bill has a keen eye for commerce and finances. He wants to help individuals, teams, and businesses achieve their full potential. He has coached business owners (all with challenges), executives, and teams in all aspects of building rapid growth and profitable companies.Summary of PodcastBill Squires' background and coaching approachBill Squires discussed his background, including his experience in the oil industry, getting an MBA, and then transitioning into business coaching about 8 years ago. He emphasized the importance of helping clients develop a clear vision and plan for their business, rather than just jumping into execution. Bill shared his 90-day planning process and the value of accountability in driving results.Challenges facing business ownersBill outlined some of the key challenges he sees business owners facing, including finding enough leads and customers, hiring and retaining good people, and getting their team to be more accountable. He noted that many business owners are working long hours but not seeing the financial rewards they expect.The role of planning and goal-settingThe discussion explored the value of long-term planning, with Bill advocating for 5-year plans that get broken down into 90-day and weekly goals. Kevin challenged whether 5 years is too long to plan for, but Bill shared examples of clients who have achieved their ambitious 5-year goals by sticking to the plan.The evolution of coaching with technologyGraham and Bill discussed the potential for AI-powered coaching tools that could scale Bill's expertise, while noting the continued value of in-person coaching and the importance of accountability that a human coach provides. They explored how technology and human coaching could complement each other going forward.Bill's coaching offerings and exit strategyBill outlined his various coaching programs, including one-on-one, group, and community-based offerings. He also shared his plan to eventually step back from the business by bringing on additional coaches and a business development manager to sustain the community he has built.The Next 100 Days Podcast Co-HostsGraham ArrowsmithGraham founded Finely Fettled eleven years ago to help businesses market to affluent and high-net-worth customers.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Sam Crome, teacher, leader and author of The Power of Teams, to explore what it really takes to build teams that thrive in schools. Sam reflects on why so much leadership development is still overly individualistic, and shares the practical principles behind strong teams - belonging, alignment, purposeful operations, healthy dynamics, and deliberate development - alongside the habits that make meetings genuinely productive rather than performative. The conversation also draws on Sam's recent move from secondary leadership into an interim primary headship, teasing out what changes (and what doesn't) when a “team” becomes a small, agile staff group who can try, refine, and embed improvements at pace. Along the way they discuss cross-phase transition and why primary pupils' appetite for responsibility and leadership is often underused in Key Stage 3, the “tyranny of the first response” in group discussions, and how simple structures (like paired talk) can surface quieter expertise and build trust for honest, high-challenge conversations.Sam Crome is currently Interim Headteacher at a primary school in Surrey. He also serves as Director of Education, Mission and People for Xavier Catholic Education Trust, providing both strategic vision and planning, alongside day-to-day school support, so that all children and staff can flourish. Sam is convinced that teams are the way to improve our workload, productivity, professional learning, performance, and the joy we can experience at work. His interest in teams led him to write the book The Power of Teams.

Children can experience illnesses and will often encounter procedures which can cause pain when they attend or are admitted to hospital. This experienced pain may be acute, chronic and/or persistent in nature. National and International guidelines are available directing Healthcare practitioners (HCPs) on how to assess and manage pain. Despite this, the assessment and management of children's pain remains a challenge within healthcare teams, and the burden of pain in children, and its impact on families and society is significant (Eccleston et al., 2021). So, let's shine a light on pain across our healthcare curriculums and in our healthcare settings to ensure that our patients get the best possible, evidence-based care and avoid the fear and lack of confidence that their pain will be managed appropriately. We have a responsibility to review our education provision to ensure that specified content is included, we need to call for improved CPD funding for staff and we need to increase awareness within the healthcare setting of the short- and long-term impact of untreated pain in children.

Embedding Diversity and Equity in Practice - When Training Ends but Hours Remain In Episode 364 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 question ‘Will AI Replace Counsellors and Psychotherapists?', examining how AI is currently used in mental health care and what this might mean for the future of the profession. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Mamood Ahmad about his newly published book A New Introduction to Counselling and Psychotherapy, which calls for embedding diversity, equity, and context at the heart of practice. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken explore what happens when your counselling course ends but your placement hours are incomplete – offering guidance on how to stay motivated and complete the journey. Will AI Replace Counsellors and Psychotherapists? [starts at 03:33 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore the question ‘Will AI Replace Counsellors and Psychotherapists?', addressing a growing concern about whether artificial intelligence could one day replace human therapists. Key points discussed include: AI is already being used to support mental health in areas such as assessment, triage, and CBT-based coaching, but not as a replacement for human connection. The therapeutic relationship - empathy, intuition, and shared presence - remains central and cannot be replicated by machines. AI can be used ethically by counsellors to streamline tasks, improve assessments, and support practice without replacing core therapeutic roles. The rise of AI highlights the importance of counsellors developing digital literacy and understanding the ethical use of technology. Future therapists will benefit from embracing AI as a tool rather than fearing it as a threat. As job displacement due to AI increases in other sectors, therapists may become key support figures for those affected by these societal shifts. Embedding Diversity and Equity in Practice [starts at 33:12 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Mamood Ahmad about his latest book, A New Introduction to Counselling and Psychotherapy and the need for systemic change in training and practice to include equity, context, and diversity as core elements. Key points from this conversation include: Traditional counselling models often overlook the contextual, cultural, and systemic influences on mental health. Mamood proposes a new baseline model where diversity, embodiment, and lived experience are embedded - not treated as optional extras. This approach enriches practice for all, recognising that every client (and therapist) brings their own cultural, social, and personal history into the room. Therapists must reflect on their own normativity and differences to meet clients with authenticity and depth. The book acts as a manifesto for change, advocating for a curriculum that prepares therapists for real-world complexity and inclusivity. It is relevant to both trainees and qualified practitioners committed to ethical and effective practice. When Training Ends but Hours Remain [starts at 59:05 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken discuss the common situation where a counselling course finishes, but a student still has placement hours outstanding. Key points include: It is common - and perfectly acceptable - for trainees to need extra time post-course to complete their client hours. Knowing the deadline and formal policy of your training provider is essential; always get this information in writing. Motivation can drop sharply after training ends, so it's important to build support networks through placements, peer groups, supervisors, or online forums. Visual motivators (like hour tokens in a jar) can help sustain momentum during this post-course phase. Stay engaged with CPD and peer connection to keep your confidence and learning alive. Remember: this is just one part of your journey, and with steady effort, the finish line is within reach.
