Episode 10 of "Big Feels @ Work" -- an audio resource for mental health professionals dealing with their own big feelings.

Heads up. This one is about the 'S' word. Suicide.

When you’re afraid someone might try to end their life, it can be hard to stay present.

Understandably, we’re often so focused on keeping them safe, we sometimes don’t get to simply sit and really listen, to witness their pain without jumping to ‘what next’.

In Episode 10, we talk about some of the challenges and opportunities of working with people at their most tender. We ask, what value can people find from the experience of deep despair? And how can we help them find it?

What do you do when you’re a seasoned psychologist, and all of a sudden you’re the one having the breakdown?

When you have such a rough time that you lose faith in your own profession, and end up leaving altogether?

Where do you go from there... and how do you come back?

Episode 8 of "Big Feels @ Work" -- an audio resource for mental health professionals dealing with their own big feelings.

For many of us, 'being productive' is a key go-to strategy for feeling like a worthy human. So what happens at a time like this, when it's harder and harder to get things done?

Topics covered:

-- Is our work more art than science?

-- Why person-centred practice may not always look 'productive'

-- Why productivity sometimes looks different for sensitive cats

-- How to write a brain-friendly to-do list (i.e. get the same amount done and feel less guilty to boot!)

Further reading we mentioned in this ep:
