OCD, addiction, toxic relationships…Dr Natalie Cawley encountered patients with all of these issues and more during her first year working as a psychotherapist. Simultaneously, she was trying to cope with her own emotional pressures, as she adapted to a new job in a new city after the breakdown of a long term relationship. Now, she has written a moving and funny memoir about that time: ‘Just About Coping - A Real-Life Drama From The Psychotherapists Chair.’ She joined me to discuss the fascinating and challenging work of a mental health professional.
