In this inaugural episode of The Art of Therapy, Dr. Warrick Phipps and clinical psychologist Marizaan Koen explore one of the most fundamental—and often overlooked—aspects of effective therapy: the therapeutic relationship. What makes therapy truly work? How does trust, empathy, and congruence shape meaningful change? Drawing from Carl Rogers’ person-centered approach and decades of clinical experience, this episode offers valuable insight into the foundation of successful therapeutic practice. Whether you're a seasoned psychologist or just beginning your journey, this conversation is a must-listen for deepening your clinical work.
