Why Therapist Spaces Aren't Safe

From The Vicarious Trauma and Resilience Podcast · 00:13:48

Show by Dr. Jenny Hughes

When therapist spaces are supposed to feel safe, a dismissive comment can land harder than we expect.So, what happens when the people we expect to understand us instead leave us feeling judged, exposed, or unsafe?In this episode, Dr. Jenny Hughes reflects on a rupture in a local therapist community, the shame and shutdown it triggered, and the effort it took to respond from regulation rather than reaction. She also considers the difference between spaces that critique and spaces that genuinely hold us, and why therapists deserve that same care from one another that we offer our clients.Resources mentioned in this episodeThe BRAVE Traum⁠⁠⁠a Therapist Collective: https://www.braveproviders.com/braveBRAVE YouTube Channel: ⁠Here⁠
