Hosts Matt and Stephanie are joined by Humane Clinic friend Suki and producer Rory to discuss Just Listening and Listening Trains, as well as further exploring Emotional CPR (eCPR), WeCPR and Open Dialogue. (Please note: As our hosts have been overseas teaching, listening and learning in recent weeks this podcast is one that was pre-recorded at the end of 2019).

Matt and Stephanie discuss how a reliance on intervention and diagnosis can erode the skills of mental health professionals to remain in human relationship. After the break, Rory speaks of a time in his life when visiting an island in Indonesia emerged as a more meaningful response to distress than a scheduled psychologist appointment. An episode about seeking genuine spaces for acceptance and connection, and how we often find these things in people and places outside of the mainstream mental health system.
