Show Notes for The Aspiring Psychologist Podcast Episode 107: What is Cancel Culture in Psychology? – with Dr Deborah Kingston
Thank you for listening to the Aspiring Psychologist Podcast.
In this episode of the Aspiring Psychologist podcast, I am joined with the wonderfully inspiring Dr Deborah Kingston, a resilient trauma-specialist. Join us as we delve into the fear of speaking, the importance of being true to oneself, and protecting wellbeing of both clients and yourselves. We discuss how cancel culture affects both professional and personal dynamics and how it negatively impacts mental health and wellbeing. We express the importance of safety for both clients and individuals over important periods such as Christmas and other family gatherings, and briefly touch on the safety of assistant psychologists and its changing dynamics.
We hope you find it so useful.
I’d love any feedback you might have, and I’d love to know what your offers are and to be connected with you on socials so I can help you to celebrate your wins!
