Manage episode 438878918 series 3423359
Christina and Katie are two Canadian psychotherapists, who met online, became colleagues IRL and now, great friends. Come hang out in the sometimes quirky and mostly nerdy therapy world of Christina Crowe and Katie Richardson, both Registered Psychotherapists in Ontario, Canada.
Today’s chat covered topics such as the pervasive effects of ableism and internalized ableism within the medical system and education, the impact of stoicism on emotional isolation, and the need for open conversations about mental health and existential topics. The conversation was reflective and insightful, touching on personal and professional aspects of their lives, including their complementary work styles and the impact of perfectionism and ableism.
Highlights:
- Ethical communication in podcasting for therapists,
- Navigating ableism and internalized ableism, particularly in the context of the medical system and education,
- Being unafraid to engage in discussions with people in positions of power,
- Psychological Safety and social media - the good side (how we met)
- Reflections on Youthful Joy and Self-Expression,
- The intersection of perfectionism, ableism and self-awareness.
