We joined John, Kate, and Carole in some free thinking about the ‘screen’, blank or otherwise.
Course Content
Presenter
I am a counselling psychologist working in private practice.
I currently provide therapy and supervision both face-to-face and online, run trainings for therapists considering working online (and other mental health/staff resilience areas), and business coaching for therapists setting up an online practice.
My doctoral research was in the Online Therapeutic Relationship from which I also became fascinated by online communications in broader contexts, especially where these impact on the work of therapists and the experiences of clients.
I have recently been taking a look at what can happen to compassion when communicating in online contexts and after a personal experience, produced a set of Netiquette guidelines which have been adopted by several organisations.
I research and write articles which particularly focus on the therapeutic relationship in online spaces, and look to support fellow therapists by keeping up with current dilemmas.
Kate is a psychotherapeutic counsellor, supervisor and trainer/consultant working in private practice, both face-to-face in the room and online using digital technology. She previously worked in a Higher Education setting as a counsellor. She has been working with clients and supervisees online since 2008 and has a special interest in the online therapeutic relationship, which has been the subject of her research, which has been published in a number of books and journals.
She and John, together with their colleague, Carole Francis-Smith, have presented a number of workshops and events for Onlinevents which can be found at https://www.onlinevents.co.uk/behind-the-screen-event-series-video-replays/
