This Trusted Place with John-Paul Davies: Mental Health, Therapy & Becoming a Therapist

Starting to see clients for the first time can feel surprisingly nerve-wracking. In this video I share some reflections on how to steady yourself in those early sessions and what really matters when you first sit down with a client.

I talk about four foundations you can rest on: what you already bring as a person, the active role of the client, the power of the relationship between you, and the wider support that holds you as a therapist. I think a helpful aim isn’t to perform or impress, but to create a safe, attentive human connection.

If you’re just beginning to see clients, or about to start, I hope this offers some reassurance and perspective.

Human Connection in a Digital World

In this video, I’m sharing a practice version of a talk I gave for Rail Wellbeing Live on one of the most important foundations of good mental health: connection. After 15 years as a therapist, I’ve come to see connection, to ourselves, to others, and to the wider world, as central to wellbeing, meaning, and resilience.

In this talk, I look at:
• Why connection is vital for both mental and physical health
• Why so many people feel increasingly disconnected, despite knowing this
• How our survival, reward, and connection systems shape the way we relate
• Practical ways to strengthen connection with ourselves
• How digital media, social media, and AI can both support and undermine connection
• The role of face-to-face relationships, nature, and small moments of human contact

This is a reflective, practical talk rather than a polished studio video, shared here for anyone interested in wellbeing, mental health, and how we stay human in an increasingly digital world.

Thinking about a career change? If you’ve been wondering whether it’s possible to leave a job that isn’t fulfilling and explore something completely new, like becoming a therapist, this video is for you. I share clips from my own journey, plus insights from people making the change right now, to help you feel more ready to take that first step.

This video is a compilation of some of the most helpful moments from my videos on career change and therapist training, alongside reflections from people who are currently on that path themselves.

We talk about:
– What draws people towards becoming a therapist
– The emotional and psychological side of training
– The importance of self-development, not just theory
– Fear, doubt, and how not to let them dominate decisions
– Why this path can feel like coming home and coming alive

If you’re feeling stuck, unfulfilled, or quietly wondering whether there’s something more meaningful for you, I hope this video helps you listen to that part of yourself that’s already moving you forward.

I’d really love to hear about your own experience or where you are on your journey, so please do feel free to comment below.

This is a compilation of what I think are some of the most meaningful moments from my videos and conversations on bisexuality so far, including pieces from my chats with Rob Brooks Cohen, Robyn Ochs, Tom Ward-Thomas and Mark Cuzack, as well as clips from my own videos on self-acceptance, coming out, finding community and living more fully as a bi person.

Bisexuality can be a really misunderstood and underrepresented experience. I hope this compilation brings together some honesty, vulnerability and helpful advice from everyone who’s contributed, from personal stories to conversations about identity, self-acceptance, loneliness, integration and community. If you’re questioning, exploring, or just looking to feel less alone, I really hope this helps.

In this video I’m talking with Dr Will Dobud about something I’ve barely touched on before: youth mental health. 

Anxiety, depression, self-harm and distress in teenagers are reported to have risen dramatically in recent years, even as diagnoses, services and medications have increased. Will and I explore why that might be and, crucially, what actually helps.

Will is a social worker, therapist, educator and researcher based in Australia, and co-author (with Dr Nevin Harper) of the book “Kids These Days”, which I highly recommend if you’re interested in youth mental health and what adults can realistically do to support young people.

In this conversation we talk about:

* Why distress in teenagers appears to be rising and why “kids these days” might not be the real problem
* Social media, phone bans and whether banning tech actually improves mental health
* Loneliness, “engagement problems” and why so many young people feel unseen even when surrounded by others at school
* Outdoor and adventure-based therapy, and how mastery and success experiences support wellbeing
* Labels, self-diagnosis and identity, including the risks of young people becoming their diagnosis
* The importance of relationship and connection in therapy and in families
* Parents’ and caregivers’ own anxiety and histories, and how that shapes how we respond to teens
* How everyday activities, rituals and shared experiences can build stronger relationships with young people

I really hope this feels supportive whether you’re a parent, carer, therapist, teacher or simply someone who cares about the young people in your life.

Changing career doesn’t start with confidence, I think it starts with small choices that help you feel more connected to yourself.

In this video I talk honestly about confidence and career change and why you don’t need to feel confident before you start. I share how my own move from law into psychotherapy began not with certainty, but with small choices based on connection: taking a career break, trying out training, volunteering and noticing where I felt most “at home”.

I walk through a simple process of connection → choice → competence → clarity, and how confidence tends to grow naturally from those stages rather than being a starting point. I also talk about bringing your existing skills with you, planning realistically for the financial transition, and how your relationship with money, status and success may change over time.

Towards the end of the video I share two “compare and contrast” memories, one from a high-pressure financial close as a lawyer and one from a 40-year celebration at my psychotherapy college, to give you a felt sense of the difference between a more disconnected life and one that feels aligned and alive.

If you’re thinking about changing career or retraining as a therapist, I hope this gives you some reassurance, some practical ideas, and a bit more compassion for yourself, especially if you don’t feel ready yet!

If anything in this video connects with you, I’d really love to hear from you in the comments with any questions, worries, hopes, or your own experience of thinking about a career change. And if you find it helpful, please do like, share and subscribe, it really helps the channel.

In this interview with Dr Ron Siegel, we look at the complexities of narcissism, its psychological roots, and the broad spectrum of behaviours it can cover. Ron is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at Harvard Medical School, a long-standing clinical psychologist and a leading voice in mindfulness-based psychotherapy. He’s known for his ability to bridge solid academic thinking with warm, practical wisdom, and he brings real clarity, care and decades of clinical experience to this topic.

We discuss everything from overt grandiosity to the quieter, more subtle forms of self-preoccupation that often go unnoticed or misunderstood. Narcissism is frequently stigmatised, but Ron offers a grounded, compassionate way of understanding these traits, exploring how they often stem from attempts to manage deep feelings of inadequacy.

We talk about the challenges therapists can face when supporting people with narcissistic traits, especially around motivation, defensiveness and genuine engagement in therapy and Ron highlights the importance of fostering self-awareness, empathy and the transformative power of self-compassion.

Through personal stories and examples, we also look at how narcissism affects relationships and wellbeing, as well as the cultural and evolutionary factors that shape these patterns. The conversation ends on a hopeful note, encouraging viewers to pursue real connection, curiosity and self-compassion as meaningful pathways to healthier relationships and personal growth.

What if Snow White wasn’t just a fairy tale but a potential mirror for our own inner journey? In this episode, I explore how Disney’s remake of Snow White reveals powerful lessons about overcoming narcissism and finding true inner integration. I’ll look at how the film’s archetypes and characters can guide us from grandiosity and self-protection towards self-acceptance and alignment and what that means for healing the split between our inner feminine and masculine.

By understanding the parts of ourselves we often push away, like anger, the heart, and the shadow,  we can move toward authenticity, balance, and a more grounded sense of wholeness. Stay till the end for practical insights on how to work with these inner dynamics in your own life and relationships.

Being a therapist is really enjoyable, meaningful work, but it can also come with some surprises. In this video, I share 5 things that have been hard on my journey as a therapist: the unexpected challenges, the moments of learning, and the human realities that perhaps  don’t often get talked about.

I talk about:

* The general lack of oversight and accountability.
* The questionable ‘empathy’ I occasionally see in other therapists.
* The relative silence on the lack of male therapists.
* How deeply relational this work really is.
* And the occasional sense of being ‘discarded’ by clients.

These are honest reflections from my own experience and I’d love to hear your thoughts, whether you’re a therapist yourself, thinking of becoming one, or simply curious about what really goes on behind the scenes in this profession.
