#14. Therapy Tip of the Week: Seasons Intelligence

Frontiers of Psychotherapist Development Podcast by Daryl Chow, Ph.D.

Understanding the current season you are in helps you figure out where you are at, in order to know where you need to go. Appreciating the seasonality of your inner and outer life provides you a navigational guide as to where you need to nurture your nature. In this video, I provide a way to open a conversational doorway about this with your client, so as to provide focus and directionality of the therapeutic endeavour.
