We are a new podcast hosted by two therapists/counsellors. One is qualified while the other is in training. We are interested in discussing topics that matter – both inside the counselling room – issues which are commonly brought into therapy such as grief, anxiety, depression. Yet, we’re also a podcast that has a dual focus, also looking outside of the therapy room at social and political issues which effect the world around us on a daily basis such as mental health awareness and wellbeing. Published on a bi-monthly on 4th & 18th! Want to contact us? Email thetherapyfilespodcast@gmail.com
