Navigating the Early Challenges of Therapy Practice

In this episode I sit down with my mentor and psychologist, Roy Barsness, PhD, and discuss the transformative power of relationship. We touch on the significance of knowing your why and part of what inspired this podcast to come to be as seen in Michael Jr's video entitled, Know Your Why. Roy is the author of Core Competencies of Relational Psychoanalysis, and the founder of Relationally Focused Psychodynamic Therapy, a post-grad certificate program for therapists, in which I am a teacher and facilitator. He is also a professor of psychology at The Seattle School of Theology & Psychology.

Bryan Nixon is a psychotherapist and the founder and clinical director of Mindful Counseling GR in Grand Rapids, MI. He is also a teacher and facilitator in Relationally Focused Psychodynamic Therapy, a post-grad continuing education program for therapists.
