In episode 10, Mitch Wallis speaks to Sharon Draper, a psychologist who's honesty about not always having her sh* together is a refreshing take on a career that can often expect perfection.
This episode covers:
- exploring dual roles as both a mental health practitioner and a patient and the trauma that impacted her life and inspired her to become involved with psychology.
- dealing with her own inner demons such as complex OCD issues that have manifested in bizarre behaviours like holding her breath.
- navigating the humanity behind the traditionally "God-like" archetypes of professional therapists.
- continuing to live with anxiety and thriving in a world where she helps others to do the same.
- how her personal mental health issues can challenge her ability to support clients, yet also increase the empathy of her work.
- why the 2 year window between 5 and 7 years old is so sensitive to forming our future mental health
- the awkward moment where a psychologist starts writing notes during your session.
