I completed the Uncommon Psychotherapy course in January 2026. I am very glad I completed it then, as in February 2026 I was impacted strongly both professionally and personally by a horrific, tragic event in my small town. I continued to counsel through the first week after the event, fueled by adrenaline and loyalty to my clients, and I would say that a reason I could continue was that my nervous system was in very good shape due to having just completed the Uncommon Psychotherapy course. I benefited from the course as both a training to help others but also as an emotional regulator for myself. Learning and implementing techniques to meet my needs is a very important way for me to continue to be able to work to help others. A week after the event, my brain froze (as I was expecting!) and I took a week off. I was then able to implement techniques for recovery in addition to seeking professional help from my clinical supervisor and returned to counselling the following week.
