    84. Documentation, Sustainability, and Self-Care: Insights from Becca Ferguson, LPC
    2024/11/07
    In this episode of the Colleague Down the Hall Podcast, Jeanene Wolfe is with Becca Ferguson. Becca shares her journey into working as a therapist, her experiences navigating challenges as an LPC, and her transition from ministry to the therapy profession. Jeanene and Becca talk about building sustainable practices, especially amid the ongoing impact of the pandemic on mental health professionals. They dive into financial challenges therapists face and the taboo around earning money from other therapists, along with Becca’s documentation course aimed at helping therapists streamline their clinical work. The episode highlights the value of Therabundle, a resource supporting therapists globally, and Becca's experience with the community. “ I go through from the very beginning, the whole workbook is there where I walk through how to get people to understand, not only how to use your DSM to create a chief complaint, because that's one of the hardest things that I see people struggling with when it comes to an initial treatment plan. People don't understand how to properly back up a diagnosis in a chief complaint. And so when you go or if you ever have to go to court, they say, I don't want to be mean in my notes, and I'm like, fair, valid, okay, you don't want to be mean in your notes. We don't have to be mean in your notes. We want to protect the client in your documentation. Protect the client and protect your license.” - Becca Key takeaways: ***Navigating Challenges in Private Practice: Becca discusses her journey into therapy work, the challenges she faced due to poor training in documentation, and the overall lack of supportive communities for interns and grad students in Arkansas. Becca advocates for therapists to prioritize their own mental health and embrace healing practices. ***Therapists Challenges: Jeanene and Becca discuss the taboo of therapists making money, advocating for fair compensation and sustainable business models in the profession. They explore the toll the pandemic continues to take on therapists, increasing workloads & emotional strain, and stress the importance of self-care and professional support.

    83. Understanding Highly Sensitive People: Traits, Challenges, and Therapeutic Approaches
    2024/10/31
    In this episode of the Colleague Down the Hall Podcast, Jeanene Wolfe is joined by April Snow, psychotherapist and HSP consultant, to discuss the traits, challenges, and the unique needs of highly sensitive people (HSPs). This neurotype affects approximately 30% of the population. April describes how HSPs experience deep emotional processing, acute detail awareness, and heightened empathy. They explore common misunderstandings HSPs face, often feeling pressured to fit into non-HSP norms, and how this can overlap with conditions like ADHD. April shares tailored therapeutic approaches, emphasizing mindfulness, somatic techniques, and resilience-building while preserving sensitivity. The conversation highlights sustainable self-care for HSP clients and therapists, with practical advice on setting boundaries, managing burnout, and navigating client relations with compassion. “A lot of people do equate it as a diagnosis, because mostly, HSPs that you're seeing in therapy, a lot of times, are struggling with anxiety, OCD, complex trauma, because we're more impacted by our environment, our experiences. But it's actually a temperament trait, so it's something you're born with. It's even prior to personality being formed, because there's, like I said, there's an evolution. An advantage to being more perceptive, more sensitive, to notice the little details, pick out the dangers, keep everyone safe. So we're going really far back biologicallly here. So, yeah, just something you're born with, and there's an advantage to it”- April Snow Key points: ***Definition and Traits of HSPs: April shares how highly sensitive people (HSPs) deeply process emotions and information, are highly empathetic, and notice fine details. This neurotype makes up about 30% of the population. ***Challenges and Misunderstandings: HSPs often experience overwhelm and misunderstandings from others due to their unique nervous system wiring and feel pressure to conform to non-HSP norms, which can lead to invalidation. ***Therapeutic Approaches: Effective therapy for HSPs includes understanding their deep processing needs and using somatic and mindfulness techniques to support nervous system regulation. Therapists are encouraged to educate themselves on the unique needs of HSPs through resources like the "Sensitive" documentary and Dr. Elaine Aaron’s work, fostering a supportive client-therapist relationship. About April Snow: April Snow, LMFT is a licensed psychotherapist, author, consultant, and Sensitive Stories podcast host. She specializes in working with highly sensitive people and therapists to help calm the storm of overwhelm, anxiety, and self-doubt to allow their innate sensitive strengths to shine through. Deeply committed to changing the narrative of what it means to be highly sensitive, April has created and led HSP workshops all over the country as well as online through her Sensitive School. In addition to Find Your Strength: A Workbook for the Highly Sensitive Person, she has written Mindfulness Workbook for Stress Relief and The Empowered Highly Sensitive Person's Self-Care Journal.

  • 82. Providing Safe and Affirming Therapy Practices With LGBTQIA+ Clients with Dara Hoffman

    82. Providing Safe and Affirming Therapy Practices With LGBTQIA+ Clients with Dara Hoffman
    2024/10/24
    In this episode of the Colleague Down the Hall Podcast, Jeanene Wolfe introduces Dara Hoffman, a non-binary, queer-identified licensed counselor with 18 years of experience serving the trans and non-binary community. Dara shares key insights on supporting LGBTQ clients, addressing microaggressions, and creating inclusive therapy spaces. Dara delves into the importance of using correct pronouns, handling mistakes such as misgendering your client, and promoting safety and trust. Dara emphasizes continuous learning, cultural humility, and the need for therapists to stay informed about evolving standards of care. This episode offers valuable guidance for therapists looking to be affirming and inclusive providers. “Honestly, the fear and the self doubt can really paralyze a therapist from being able to even start working with these clients, referring these clients out too soon, where, really checking in to say, Okay, this is really just because I'm uncomfortable, not because this person's trans, I just don't want to mess up. And that's a point of where more so sticking with your client, especially if you've known them for a while, and turns out they're like, ‘I can finally tell my therapist I'm trans’, but being able to recognize that is a point where you need education or consultation to be able to move forward with that client. If the client would like to have a different therapist, that's a different story, but be careful not to refer out too soon.”- Dara Hoffman Key points: ***Use Correct Pronouns and Names: It is critical for therapists to gather and use clients' correct names and pronouns from the beginning to avoid microaggressions. Misgendering and using incorrect or gendered language can derail sessions and harm clients' sense of safety. ***Be Culturally Humble: Therapists should balance understanding their clients as individuals while acknowledging their trans identity without hyper-focusing on it unless relevant. If a mistake is made, it’s important for therapists to recognize it, process it after the session, and address it if needed in future sessions. ***Create an Inclusive Space: Inclusive office practices, such as displaying LGBTQ flags and addressing restroom policies, contribute to a safer environment for clients. ***Continuing Ed: Engage in continuous learning and consult colleagues rather than referring clients out too quickly. ***Stay Updated on Standards of Care: Therapists need to remain informed on evolving standards, such as requirements for gender-affirming surgeries or hormone use, by consulting resources like WPATH. About Dara Hoffman: Dara Hoffman (they/them) is a nonbinary, queer-identified licensed professional counselor in Colorado Springs, Colorado who has 18 years of experience serving the trans and nonbinary community. As the author of YOU AND YOUR GENDER IDENTITY: A GUIDE TO DISCOVERY, Dara has been recognized nationally as an expert trainer and presenter, sharing their knowledge with organizations, businesses, and conferences across the country. Currently, Dara provides supervision to interns and licensure candidates and works as a contract trainer and facilitator for various organizations. After closing their private practice two and a half years ago, Dara is in a transformative period, taking intentional steps toward new ventures that resonate deeply with their life’s purpose. As they navigate their own health challenges, Dara is committed to honoring this journey, knowing it will shape and inform the meaningful work they will offer in the future. Dara lives in Colorado Springs with their cat, Mew and can be found frolicking in hot springs, drum circles and karaoke bars, studying astrology, and hosting gatherings at their home for their beautiful circle of friends.
