UK therapists, what training course would you recommend for someone wanting to become a self employed therapist?
I'd prefer to take psychology & counselling (https://www.open.ac.uk/courses/psychology/degrees/bsc-psychology-with-counselling-q84) but that doesn't qualify me.
The counselling only degree (https://www.open.ac.uk/courses/counselling/degrees/bsc-counselling-r86) seems to mean I'd be qualified.
New Utah Law Seeks to Crack Down on Life Coaches Offering Therapy Without a License
—
Some therapists who lose their licenses transition to the unregulated life coaching industry, an investigation by The Salt Lake Tribune and ProPublica found. A new law makes it clear that only licensed therapists can provide mental health treatment.

The Mental app was co-founded by the CTO of Calm, and is niched down into men’s #mentalhealth, specifically.
Gentlemen, don’t knock #coldshowers and AI #therapy until you try it.

After years of counseling #LGBTQ+ folks through their relationships, I’ve come to recognize this isn’t just random emotional baggage — it’s a shared wound carved by our collective experience.

Some of the best things in life are free. Youtube videos of some rock greats is one example. Linda Ronstadt, 2 + hrs. And I haven't hit a commercial in over an hr.
And re Linda. wow. There is a great documentary somewhere on her life and current condition. Her up bringing and evolution from rock, classics, Hispanic heritage, and now her current condition. Search for your fav... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXueI-DTwJ8 #music #therapy #wtf #lindaronstadt
@AxiosNews describes the divide between people who trust AI technology to take on the role of therapists, companions and life coaches and the people who do not. Which one are you?
Also, I had an epiphany. Therapy has inherent value even in shitty situations. At the very least, counselling can* grant you an example template of a (one-sided) healthy relationship.
It's unfair to have to wait or pay for it.
Regardless of what factors facilitate that experience, still, knowing what that COULD look like is constructive.
* [ I say "can" because some individuals should not be in mental health professions, others could be if they have better working conditions, and yet more can always have an off day -- or you two just might not mesh as people. It happens. ]
e.g. my therapist can't make my doctor stop being a shit, but knowing they believe me when I say it stresses me out is indispensable.
You need a handler for the spy-craft of existing while mistreated.
Someone must remind you that imagination for restructuring society is boundless.
We CAN meet everyone's needs if and only if we first consider it possible.
'For years, therapy dogs have ruled the world of animal-assisted services (AAS), offering stress relief to college students, hospital patients and those in need of emotional support. But new research suggests that some cats might also have what it takes to join the ranks of therapy animals — bringing their purrs, gentle head-butts and calm demeanor to the field.'
I mean, this is funny.. but also I spent my therapy session last week talking about how I think WW3 has already started.. so...
Also finding a psychologist who deals with me as an Aboriginal person living under settler colonialism has been ground breaking for my mental health. Definitely recommend.
Hello everyone!
My partner @g1m01982 is a #TaylorSwift fanatic, but he's struggled to connect with other #Swifties on the #Fediverse. I am most assuredly *not* one, but I know how very passionate he is about the artist and the entire industry built around her; and he needs all the support and encouragement he can get as he struggles to recover from #PTSD and years of abuse without any #therapy or income.
So.. if you are a #Swiftie4Life like him, please consider giving him a follow. Thank you!
