Dr Lawrence Shapiro talks about how using Psychological Homework develops Skills and aids the Client in their Clinical Journey

Hello and welcome to the Coffee with your Therapist Podcast, the podcast where we talk with people in the therapy field about their careers, their work and the music they like, all in 20 minutes.
This episode we talk to Dr Laurence Shapiro, President, of Between Sessions who is based in Miami.
Laurence talks about his journey from being a Child Psychologist to developing his ideas of making games and Psychological Workbooks available to Therapists for them to work with Clients; literally, between sessions.
The materials are all evidence based but also practical and they are highly focused on the specific areas that the Client requires help on.  They encourage the Client to develop their own agency to address their needs.
To end the Podcast, we talk about music and we play out on one of Lawrence’s favourite songs.  Lawrence is an enjoyable guest, and he talks about his work clearly and with passion, I certainly enjoyed talking with him.

Mary McHugh - a pioneer in Online Counselling talks about her experiences of developing services and her favourite song

Hello and welcome to the Coffee with your Therapist Podcast, the podcast where we talk with people in the therapy field about their careers, their work and the music they like, all in 20 minutes
This episode we talk to Mary McHugh who is a Pioneer in Online Counseling.
This is something that is common place now but was seen as unusual or even not acceptable a decade ago.  They originally started with basic Text Chat and, surprisingly, even this provided a channel that worked for some Clients.  This has progressed to Telephone and then to full Video as technology has become more accessible.
Mary relates a great story about one Client that she worked with and how the Therapeutic Relationship progressed through the different technologies successfully.
She also points out one advantage that Online Counseling has over Face-to-Face Counseling, in that it can be kept more private if the Client requires it. And, indeed, some families are often geographically dispersed and technology can bridge those locations.
We also talk about the change in the Irish Attitude to Therapy over the decades and that it is now more acceptable to engage with a Therapist.
Finally we get onto Mary’s hobbies and she has a surprising way of relaxing.
We play out on a song that Mary says makes her thinks about how people view themselves as people.
