Supporting Male Survivors of Sexual Abuse - Carl Rogers'Seven Stages of Process In Episode 340 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 look at the question: Can clients ask you to delete their data? - covering legal, ethical, and practical considerations. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Jeremy Sachs about supporting male survivors of sexual abuse, with a focus on the intersectional challenges they face and practical considerations for therapists. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken explain and simplify Carl Rogers' Seven Stages of Process, highlighting how this core theory maps client growth in therapy. Can Clients Ask You to Delete Their Data?  [starts at 03:26 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken address a challenging but important question: Can clients ask you to delete their data? Key points discussed include: Under UK GDPR (Article 17), clients have the "right to erasure" (right to be forgotten), but it's not absolute. You may decline deletion if: The data is required for legal obligations, such as tax or insurance records. You need the data to defend against complaints or for safeguarding purposes. Deleting data prematurely could leave you without a defence if a client complains later or if you are required to provide records to legal authorities or coroners. Good practice includes: Explaining data retention policies in your contract. Consulting the ICO (Information Commissioner's Office) for UK-based practitioners. Documenting decisions with written evidence from insurers or data protection authorities. Consider using a split-note system to separate identifying details from case notes. How long should client data be kept after therapy ends? (Commonly six years for adults, up to age 25 for children). Supporting Male Survivors of Sexual Abuse [starts at 23:53 mins] In ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Jeremy Sachs, therapist and author of the upcoming book Masculinity Reconnected, about male sexual abuse and its often-overlooked challenges. Key points discussed include: Societal silence: Male survivors often go unheard due to cultural narratives about masculinity, strength, and emotional repression. The role of masculinity: Traditional masculinity can prevent men from seeking help. Men may internalise shame and avoid vulnerability. "Toxic masculinity" can further oppress male survivors. Intersectionality: Men experience sexual abuse differently based on race, gender identity, class, or sexuality. Therapists must recognise these layers when supporting clients. Supporting survivors: Create safe, validating spaces for male clients to share their stories. Explore how societal expectations and cultural messaging impact their healing. Encourage community and connection to reduce isolation. Carl Rogers' Seven Stages of Process [starts at 45:40 mins] In ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken simplify Carl Rogers' Seven Stages of Process, a key person-centred theory describing how clients grow through therapy. Key points include: The seven stages map a client's journey from rigidity to fluidity - from defensiveness to openness and self-trust. Stages explained: Rigidity & Defensiveness – Blaming others, avoiding self-awareness. External Recognition – Acknowledging problems exist but externalising them. Tentative Self-Exploration – Starting to discuss personal feelings. Here-and-Now Feelings – Becoming present-focused, seeking involvement in therapy. Ownership & Change – Taking control and committing to change. Experiencing Fully – Accepting emotions in real-time and trusting the inner self. Self-Actualisation – Living authentically and growing beyond therapy. Most therapy takes place between stages 3–5,

Practising Good Self-care – What is My Counselling Philosophy? In Episode 339 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 potential dangers of dual relationships in counselling and psychotherapy  – how they arise, the ethical implications, and strategies to manage them appropriately. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Sally Anne Armitage about her lecture on practising good self-care – a vital skill for therapists at every stage of their careers. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken reflect on the importance of defining and understanding your personal counselling philosophy as a student and practitioner. Dual Relationships in Counselling and Psychotherapy [starts at 03:29 mins] This week's topic explores the often-overlooked issue of dual relationships in counselling and psychotherapy  – where a therapist has another connection to their client beyond the therapeutic one. Key points discussed include: A dual relationship can involve personal, social, familial, educational, or professional overlap with a client. Common examples include supervising someone you've worked with as a client, counselling friends, or working within the same family or organisation. These relationships can: Break confidentiality boundaries Lead to power imbalances Create confusion around the therapist's role Undermine objectivity and the therapeutic alliance Ethical bodies (BACP, UKCP, NCPS) acknowledge that dual relationships sometimes arise, especially in smaller communities or training contexts, but they must be handled with extreme care. Dual relationships can damage trust, blur boundaries, and even cause clients to leave therapy prematurely if not managed appropriately. Practising Good Self-care [starts 27:13 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Sally Anne Armitage about her recent lecture on practising good self-care – a core component of professional resilience. Key points of the conversation include: Self-care is essential but often neglected by therapists. It must be intentional and planned, not left to chance. There's a key difference between leisure and self-care – some activities (like scrolling social media) may distract rather than restore. Self-care involves reconnecting the mind and body e.g. noticing when you're tired, hungry, or overwhelmed and responding accordingly. Listening to the body's cues helps prevent burnout, irritability, and emotional exhaustion. Technology and social media can disconnect us from physical awareness e.g. ignoring hunger, tiredness, or the need for rest. Practical self-care suggestions: Looking at greenery or distant views for improved mental health Listening to the body's signals (e.g. when to rest, eat, pause) Saying "no" when needed to preserve emotional capacity Recognising early signs of fatigue, such as withdrawal or irritability What is My Counselling Philosophy? [starts at 51:54 mins] In this final section, Rory and Ken explore the topic: What is my Counselling Philosophy? A question that may come up in training and supervision. Key points include: A counselling philosophy reflects your personal values, modality, and beliefs about therapeutic work. It answers: “What do I stand for as a practitioner?” and “How do I understand and approach therapy?” For person-centred therapists, it may include concepts like unconditional positive regard, trust in the process, and self-actualisation. Your philosophy may evolve over time with experience and reflection. Ethical practice means being aware of your values while respecting and prioritising the client's world and truth. Don't leave your fingerprints on the client - let them develop in their own way.

REBT for Pain Management and Exercise - Counselling Skills Feedback In Episode 338 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 essential and sensitive topic of supporting suicidal clients – discussing how therapists can respond ethically and effectively, including risk assessment and safety planning. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Ruth Hill about her lecture on REBT for pain management and exercise – blending cognitive therapy with physical wellbeing to support client recovery. And lastly, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken discuss the importance of receiving and using counselling skills feedback – helping you get the most from peer observations and strengthen your skills in training. Supporting Suicidal Clients [starts at 03:29 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken discuss the sensitive but important issue of supporting suicidal clients, and how to respond appropriately in therapy. Key points discussed include: Suicidal ideation can range from passing thoughts to detailed planning. All expressions should be taken seriously. Risk factors include mental health diagnoses (e.g. depression, bipolar disorder), substance abuse, previous attempts, bereavement, and neurodivergence (particularly autism). Warning signs may present as hopelessness, withdrawal, giving away possessions, or even sudden mood improvements. Therapists should feel confident in: Asking direct, nonjudgmental questions Assessing risk through clarity on plans and means Creating collaborative safety plans with clients Intervention may include providing helpline details, referring to a GP, or involving other services – guided by your therapeutic contract. Documentation, supervision, and appropriate CPD are all essential to ensure ethical and competent practice. REBT for Pain Management and Exercise [starts at 42:15 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Ruth Hill about her lecture on REBT (Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy), and how it can be used to support pain management and exercise. The key points of this conversation include: REBT explores irrational beliefs and helps clients reframe unhelpful thoughts (e.g. “I can't cope with this pain” becomes “I don't want this pain, but I can cope with it”). Beliefs around pain often increase suffering and decrease motivation. Therapists can help clients notice and challenge cognitive distortions like catastrophising, black-and-white thinking, and mind-reading. Avoidance and guarding behaviour can worsen pain and increase deconditioning. Exercise can be reintroduced gently and collaboratively. Therapists should explore client history around movement – school PE experiences, family values, or previous injuries can shape limiting beliefs. Exercise doesn't have to mean running a marathon – it could mean stretching, walking, or visualising movement to reconnect mind and body. Counselling Skills Feedback [starts at 01:05:57 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore how to receive and use feedback on counselling skills, a vital part of developing as a student practitioner. Key points include: In triad skills sessions, the “client” should give feedback first, followed by the observer. Keep feedback constructive – use statements like “I wonder what might have happened if…” instead of criticism. Use observation forms to stay focused – reflect on specific skills such as silence, open questions, or paraphrasing. Sandwich suggestions between two pieces of positive feedback. Not all feedback is right – look for consistent patterns before making major changes. Recording practice sessions can help spot what worked well and what could be improved. Feedback isn't just about ticking boxes – it's about deepening empathy, timing,

iCloud Changes and Client Confidentiality – Dealing with DNAs in Placement and Practice In Episode 337 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 how to talk to children about death - covering developmental understanding, appropriate language, and how to support children through bereavement. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Catherine Knibbs about changes in Apple's encryption policy and what this means for therapists in terms of data protection and confidentiality. And lastly, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken discuss how to respond when a client does not attend a session, particularly while you're on placement. Talking to Children About Death [starts at 03:26 mins] Talking to children about death is a delicate but vital topic. In this section, Rory and Ken offer guidance on how to approach this with compassion and clarity. Key points discussed include: Begin the conversation by referencing nature - trees, animals, and seasons can help young children start to understand the cycle of life and death. Avoid euphemisms such as “gone to sleep” or “passed away” - these can be confusing and potentially distressing. Children under 5 may not grasp the permanence of death. They may show their grief through regression, clinginess, or confusion. Children between 5 and 11 are more aware but may still not fully understand. They often ask the same questions repeatedly to process the information. Magical thinking can lead a child to believe their actions or thoughts caused a death - therapists and caregivers must gently challenge this. William Worden's “12 Needs of a Bereaved Child” mention the need for clear and honest information, routine, and emotional expression. iCloud Changes and Client Confidentiality [starts at 24:04 mins] In this week's Practice Matters, Rory speaks with Catherine Knibbs about the recent removal of Advanced Data Protection from Apple iCloud in the UK, and how this impacts therapists. The key points of this conversation include: iCloud's end-to-end encryption has been removed in the UK, meaning data stored in iCloud is more easily accessible by government agencies. Therapists who use Apple devices may unknowingly store sensitive client data (notes, recordings) in the cloud. It's now more important than ever to review your device settings and understand where your client data is going. If you're recording sessions, use dedicated offline devices like a dictaphone rather than mobile phones that automatically sync to the cloud. Be aware of auto-backups on apps and devices, and take steps to disable them if needed. Therapists must now adopt a more technologically informed stance on client confidentiality, reviewing not just clinical practice but also data storage and device use. Dealing with DNAs in Placement and Practice [starts at 49:30 mins] Do Not Attends (DNAs) are a common part of placement and professional practice. In this section, Rory and Ken reflect on how to respond both practically and emotionally. Main points include: It's normal for clients to miss sessions, especially in the early stages of therapy or during times of personal crisis. As a student, it's easy to take a DNA personally, but it's rarely about you - clients may not be ready, or other life factors may have intervened. Use the time to reflect, do coursework, or engage in self-care. Some placement providers use systems to reduce DNAs, such as text reminders or follow-up calls. Take these experiences into supervision to gain support and insight. Clients may only attend one session, but even a single meeting can offer value. It's part of your development to work through these moments professionally and reflectively. Talking to Children About Death Click Here to Download Free Handout ...

Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) – Reviewing Client Progress In Episode 336 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 look at building your counselling CV – including key features to include, ways to stand out, and how to present yourself professionally. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Nicola Durrant about working with clients who have Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) – a profile on the autism spectrum that requires a unique and flexible therapeutic approach. And lastly in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken look at how to review a client's progress in therapy – and why it's an important part of ethical and effective practice. Building your Counselling CV  [starts at 03:31 mins] A counselling CV is your first professional impression – and it should reflect not only your qualifications but also your values and personal qualities. In this section, Rory and Ken explore what makes an effective and authentic CV: Start by making sure it's well-structured and no more than 2–4 pages. Tailor it to each job, making sure you reflect the ethos of the organisation you're applying to. Be honest about your experience, but also include transferable skills such as active listening, communication, and resilience. Include professional memberships, ethical awareness, and a commitment to personal development. A personal statement can be a great way to communicate your motivation, values, and readiness for the role. If you've done any research or CPD, mention this too – especially if it aligns with the organisation's client group or focus. Ask a peer or supervisor to read your CV and give feedback – having a second pair of eyes helps spot anything you may have missed. Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) [starts at 29:46 mins] In this week's Practice Matters, Rory speaks with Nicola Durrant about Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) – a profile on the autism spectrum characterised by a high level of anxiety around everyday demands. The key points of this conversation include: PDA is a survival response to perceived demands – it is not about control or defiance. People with PDA often mask their anxiety, especially in school or social environments, and release it later in safe spaces like home. Therapy must be collaborative and low-pressure – avoid direct demands and use invitational language like “I wonder if…” Strategies such as co-regulation, emotional literacy, and flexible structure help support clients with PDA. Trauma-informed practice is essential – the behaviours often resemble trauma responses such as fight, flight, or freeze. Adults with PDA don't outgrow it – they learn how to manage demands and environments that help them feel safe and in control. Reviewing Client Progress [starts at 54:29 mins] Reviewing client progress is a core part of ethical practice, particularly in short-term therapy or student placements. In this section, Rory and Ken look at why reviews are important and how to approach them: Reviews allow the client to reflect on progress, clarify goals, and express what has been helpful or challenging. This also supports therapist development and helps guide future sessions. You can carry out a review through conversation or using tools like the CORE-10 assessment. Let clients know at the start that a review will happen mid-way through the work – this makes it feel natural and expected. Adapt the review timing to the client's progress and needs – it doesn't have to be exactly session six. Ask questions like “How do you feel things are going so far?” or “Is there anything you'd like to change or focus on more?” Use supervision to reflect on what comes up in client reviews – this can strengthen your awareness and planning for the second half of therapy.

Andrea Foster joins Dr. Sandie Morgan as the two discuss how integrating health services within school systems enhances student well-being and functions as a vital strategy to prevent human trafficking. Andrea Foster Andrea Foster is currently the administrator of Integrated Health within Student Services for the Orange County Department of Education. She provides supportive services and resources to promote healthy environments for over 400,000 students and their families across the county. She wants students to be able to access their education and become productive, successful adults. She has 24 years of school nursing experience across multiple settings and was recently a guest speaker at the annual Ensure Justice Conference. Key Points MTSS (Multi-Tiered System of Support) is a tiered framework that supports students at all levels—from universal interventions like screenings to highly individualized health or academic plans. Integrated Health addresses the intersection of medical, emotional, and academic needs, ensuring students are supported holistically across environments. Schools function as safety nets, especially when community awareness of MTSS allows families to engage with school systems more effectively. Staff training to identify red flags and behavioral patterns is crucial in creating trusting environments where students feel safe to share concerns. Rather than punitive responses to tardiness or behavioral issues, staff are encouraged to approach students and families with empathy and support. Programs like “Handle With Care” and “FOCUS” facilitate communication from families to schools when a child may need extra care without disclosing private details. Health education in schools—whether related to chronic conditions, substance use, or injury prevention—empowers students to make informed choices. Digital wellness is a growing area of focus, emphasizing safe, intentional use of technology and awareness of harmful online challenges. Students should be taught to critically evaluate online prompts, understand data privacy, and self-advocate when something feels unsafe or inappropriate. Empowering students to self-advocate helps them protect themselves and their peers, especially when navigating online platforms. Every child needs at least one trusted adult; school staff can foster these relationships by creating open, safe environments for honest conversations. Community involvement—through school board engagement, volunteering, or partnerships—can strengthen schools' ability to support students and families effectively.

Ongoing planetary transits are continually activating cosmic energies, which in turn impact humanity. A particularly significant transit is that of Pluto, the planet associated with transformation, shadows, death, and rebirth. Pluto has been doing a little “dance” moved into Aquarius and then retrograded back into Capricorn, leading to considerable upheaval and transformation in themes related to systems, structures, business, and government. This transit encourages breaking free from traditional constraints and exploring new identities and ways of being.Expect a surge in revolutionary ideas and unconventional approaches to problems, as Pluto encourages people to challenge the status quo and seek transformative solutions. Where I am, we are moving deeper into the fall season and noticing the days are getting shorter, the light is shifting.. the Veils are thinning.  An expression used in spiritual, mystical, and even poetic contexts. It suggests that the barriers between different realms of existence— the physical and spiritual worlds—are becoming less pronounced. Opening us up to increased awareness and sensitivity to spiritual experiences, energies, or insights. it is believed that the boundary between the living and the spiritual is more permeable. It can evoke a sense of heightened intuition, connection to the unseen, or the potential for profound revelations This also speaks to a collective shift in awareness. As more people become attuned to spiritual practices and consciousness, the overall understanding of interconnectedness and spirituality may deepen. It is a time to explore your spiritual paths, embrace transformation, and connect more deeply with both yourself and the broader universe. Expanding Consciousness is the subject on my next several podcasts.. exploring ways to expand your conspicuousness, some of our formative teachers and how you can get out of your box, and allow your Soul to guide you.

The pandemic babies who were toddlers, and preschoolers are now school aged showing signs of learning loss, speech delays, behavioral problems and more. Ms. Denean Bressi serves as the Director of Special Education and Student Services at the Susquenita School District. Bressi expressed the students were affected in many ways depending on age level. The students that were in kindergarten and preschool growth were stifled a little more than the older students. “It had a lot of impact. From the perspective of not only the students that were in school and then left, but the ones who never begun school. First of all, a lot of times the kids, we find that kids after the pandemic weren't seeking out their peers to play with. They were much more isolated. They didn't have functioning skills. They weren't able to take turns.” According to Bressi, the early years are critical for brain development. The kids who started school since covid, on average are two years behind grade level. “When you have a child that is in third grade who very well may have lost a year, year and a half of education because of the pandemic, they're still being graded or tested or expected to achieve at that third-grade level, even though they miss those skills.” However, because their brains are developing at a rapid rate, there's still time for those pandemic babies to catch up. “Kids are resilient. The brain is resilient. There's so much growth that occurs in these time frames that yes, they can. The key is to catch it early, to give them those remediations early. And they can make it up. We're beginning to see that. But it's a slow process.” Listen to the podcast to hear more of the conversation.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Helping families feel involved in their children's education goes beyond checking the boxes to make sure you're following legal guidelines.That's why I invited Dr. Kristin Vogel-Campbell to De Facto Leaders to talk about how school teams can make the IEP process more welcoming to families, especially those from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds. Dr. Kristin Vogel-Campbell (she/her/hers) is a veteran Special Educator with over 20 years in the field. She has served in various roles from paraeducator to Director of Student Services and Special Education. She was a classroom teacher for a decade in the San Francisco Bay Area, working with students from Kindergarten through 8th grade. She is a systems-focused educator, working at the district level with school teams to ensure that students with disabilities are provided high-quality, research-based instruction and that all students are treated with dignity and respect in the Least Restrictive Environment. In addition, she has supported new site leaders in deepening their understanding of Special Education, including laws and protections for students and families. Kristin is a practitioner-researcher, working with families to share their experiences and perspectives. Informed with this familial knowledge, teams can make practical shifts needed to move to a collaborative partnership with culturally affirming, sustainable, and equitable families. She has presented at AERA (American Educational Research Association), NAME (National Association of Multicultural Education), and ACSA (Association of California School Administrators, among others. Articles have appeared in Leadership (ACSA magazine), The Journal of Leadership, Equity, and Research, and the KQED Education blog. Her book “Partnering with Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Families in Special Education” was published in December 2023 by Rowman & Littlefield.In this conversation, we discuss:✅You've provided the “procedural safeguards”, but do families really understand their rights? ✅What's going on when parents don't show up for parent-teacher conferences and IEP meetings?✅Why environmental set-up matters during IEP meetings; including seating arrangements and how/when the team enters the room. ✅Navigating language barriers, transportation issues, and logistical constraints. ✅Finding the balance between family schedules and staff contractual time when setting up IEP meetings.✅Tips for managing nerves during IEP meetings so you can make your report feel conversational (and less technical).You can connect with Dr. Vogel-Campbell on LinkedIn here (https://www.linkedin.com/in/drvogelcampbell/), and on Instagram here (https://www.instagram.com/drvogelcampbell/). Be sure to check out her book “Partnering with Culturally and Linguistically Diverse Families in Special Education” here (https://rowman.com/ISBN/9781538180365/Partnering-with-Culturally-and-Linguistically-Diverse-Families-in-Special-Education).Be sure to check out these other episodes of De Facto Leaders where I talked about how to improve community and family engagement:EP 113: Making literacy accessible and equitable (with Cassandra Williams) Link here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/ep-113-making-literacy-accessible-and-equitable-with-cassandra-williams/EP 118: Coaching aspiring leaders in school turn-around and community outreach (with Edward Gordon II) Link here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/ep-118-coaching-aspiring-leaders-in-school-turn-around-and-community-outreach-with-edward-gordon-ii/EP 96: Supporting bilingualism in K-12 kids (with Briana Wagner) Link here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/ep-96-supporting-bilingualism-in-k-12-kids-with-briana-wagner/EP 143: Developing a cultural competemility mindset (with Melanie Evans) Link here: https://drkarendudekbrannan.com/ep-143-developing-a-cultural-competemility-mindset-for-educators-and-clinicians-with-melanie-evans/I also mentioned The School of Clinical Leadership, my program that helps related service providers guide their teams to support students' executive functioning across the day. This program will help you plan direct therapy, but will also help you lead change management on your team, no matter your job title.

nterviewer: Dr. Lisa Meeks Interviewees: Erin Browkoski, Suzanne Hawks, Karyn LaTurner, Christine Low, Sarah Triano Description In this special episode of the DRP series, we explore the origins and evolution of the Docs With Disabilities Access in Medicine (AIM) program, a vibrant initiative dedicated to promoting accessible and equitable educational environments for students with disabilities in medical education. Our conversation delves into AIM's collaborative partnerships with various organizations and the development of essential resources aimed at breaking down barriers to disability inclusion within medical education. Through engaging stories and real-life triumphs, we highlight the tangible impact of AIM's efforts, seen through the transformative journeys of individual students and the invaluable support networks they discover. Additionally, we shed light on the personal motivations driving AIM's members, emphasizing the significance of shared learning experiences and the collective desire for increased accessibility. By delving into the principles of mutual learning and community solidarity, we underscore the empowering paths taken by students navigating their disability journeys and stress the importance of challenging biases entrenched within the medical field. Our discussion extends beyond individual experiences to explore the broader societal implications and ethical imperatives surrounding disability inclusion. As we delve into the core of AIM's mission, we urge the wider medical community to actively advocate for accessibility and inclusivity, catalyzing meaningful change by amplifying success stories and critically examining prevailing attitudes and beliefs. Furthermore, we extend an open invitation for professionals outside the AIM Working Group to join this vital conversation and contribute to the collective effort of creating a more inclusive future in medicine.
