Psychotherapy

So a little bit more about Heather.

She's a psychoanalyst and a faculty member and supervisor at the Institute for Psychoanalytic Study of Subjectivity and the National Institute for the Psychotherapies.

She's a certified hypnotherapist, EMDR practitioner, and she incorporates embodied techniques into her psychoanalytic work.

So she's kind of a unicorn in that.

Joining me today is Dr. Bridget Bull-Yohan.

Bridget is a lecturer in psychotherapy and is a registered and practicing psychotherapist.

She's experienced working with a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, grief, and loss.

She also has a special interest in the growing use of AI chatbots and the impacts and ethics of their use.

Yeah, that's a very good point.

So a psychotherapist, it comes from the studying of psychoanalysis and it has developed along modern theories and it's become more relational and it's also holistic.

So it looks at the unconscious, it looks at how childhood might impact relational dynamics and it's all part of understanding what's going on for the person at the time in relation to all these other aspects and it also we started to look more at neurobiology and neuropsychotherapy and understanding the impact that the biology of a person has on their psychology and vice versa.

Most people probably have an idea of what that might look like because of TV and movies.

So what will, what will be, you know, in, on her ex-expertise as a psico-psa-psicoterapeuta.

¿Cómo se dice?

Psicoterapeuta, sí.

As a psicoterapeuta, ¿cuál sería esa, esa recomendación principal y, y empezar a tomar acción, Celia?

Definitivamente, la prevención es lo ideal.

And, you know, access programs can only do so much.

I mentioned earlier that Psychotherapy is the first-line treatment for many mental health conditions, especially those that are mild to moderate.

And yet sometimes pharmacotherapy is what happens initially as a bridge to getting to therapy because...

the therapy workforce, the psychotherapy workforce is not as much as we need right now.

Driven by a desire to humanize leadership, Tana left the corporate world to focus on supporting the emotional and psychological well-being of leaders.

Tana now leverages her industry experience as the founder of both Percepta Leadership, which provides specialized psychotherapy services to executives and leaders, and the Center for Applied Psychodynamics, which provides coach training.

Tana is on the faculty of graduate studies at EU Business School in Barcelona, Spain, where she teaches leadership, as well as York University in Canada, where she teaches risk management and insurance studies.

Tana holds an MBA in leadership, a master of arts in humanities, and several executive coaching designations.

Welcome to episode 125 of Soul to Soul Care for Trauma and ADHD.

In today's episode, I'm talking to the delightful psychotherapist, energy worker and supervisor, Louise Urel and she's talking about her work with horse assisted psychotherapy and her energy work, her work with the Divine Feminine and knitting, crocheting, crafting and grounding, lots and lots of grounding.

I hope you enjoy listening or watching as much as I enjoyed talking to her and thanks for being here.

So welcome Louise Ural.

So what am I working at the moment? Well, supervision is a huge part of what I do and that's why I'm involved with IACP as well and kind of organising the supervisors walk and talk.

I suppose most of my work would be with groups for group supervision and individuals.

But if you ask for what where I managed to blend my love for the work I do and my hobbies, then it would be the equine assisted psychotherapy.

I absolutely love that piece of kind of it.
