Summary

In Episode 371 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly explore three key topics relevant to counsellors and counselling students. Firstly, in 'Ethical, Sustainable Practice' , they introduce the emerging conversation around AI in counselling , exploring whether therapists are being left behind and how practitioners can engage with AI ethically. Then in 'Practice Matters' , Rory speaks with Jessica Wing about preparing to meet your very first client , sharing insights to help students transition from classroom practice to real therapeutic work. And finally in 'Student Services' , Rory and Ken clarify the difference between humanism and person-centred therapy , a common area of confusion for counselling students studying theoretical models.
