The "S-Word" in Social Work- When Eros Enters the Therapeutic Space Ep.23

In this episode, we sit down with a social worker who shares his story of being attracted to his client- what does this look like, how does it feel, and how do you keep yourself and your client safe. We discuss what happens when Eros enters the therapeutic space, the importance of being honest in supervision, and what role personal counselling holds for practitioners. 

Mim and Lis share from their own experiences of education, supervision and the workplace, and break down that often avoided subject of sex in social work.
