In the section of my book called Professional Cannibalism I'm saying an even £50k for all that wage theft designed into therapy trainings for Category C .

A spring tour of an award-winning installation is set to expose how the actions of the Department for Work and Pensions caused “devastating violence” and led to countless deaths of benefit claimants in the austerity years.

Hoping to address some of the questions in this thread with Clare Slaney and Marvis Stewart (she/her) MNCS (Accred) at the 2024 National Counsellors’ Day Conference - How comfortable are we as therapists talking about poor people?

This has happened under YOUR government. It’s almost as if taking everything away from everybody that keeps them healthy would result in ill-health. Who knew 🙄 Tories couldn’t be more out of touch 🤷🏻‍♀️

It’s been 10 days since the devastating news of the UKCP. Since then I have heard many stories of re-traumatisation, of disassociation, disbelief and fear from the Queer community. And silence .. come on allies. We need to keep signing, keep talking, keep fighting oppressions

Maria Albertsen @therapywithNara We don't discuss money at all, despite every part of our industry being intimately dependent on it. How could it not be? There's no state funding for C&P, it is entirely reliant on private money and the market.

Maria Albertsen @therapywithNara We don't talk about what 'counselling' symbolises to the client who needs to prove to the DWP that they're something or other enough to receive the right kind of benefit.

We never, ever talk about what being a counsellor symbolises to the counsellor in relation to The Poor ™

Maria Albertsen @therapywithNara We divide those clients into the deserving and undeserving poor. We believe that employment will sort the unemployed out. We don't talk about what the wrong kind of employment does to someone-which includes creating embittered, unpleasant people.

Maria Albertsen @therapywithNara We don't talk about the fact that people who are used to being given shit expect to be given shit, and how that impacts the therapeutic relationship (not least because we give them therapists that we would judge v harshly if they tried to go into private practice.)

Really excited to present on at NCD 2024 on the 29th June. I'm also really excited to learn that Lucia Sarmiento Verano will be presenting too. IMO, Lucia is one of the most brilliant thinkers on social justice in this profession. I can't wait. nationalcounsellorsday.co.uk
