Episode Synopsis

What defines the therapist’s role in a truly effective therapeutic relationship? In Episode 3 of The Art of Therapy, Dr. Warwick Phipps and Marizaan Koen dive into the concept of the “asocial” therapeutic role—where the focus is entirely on the client’s needs and growth. They explore how staying non-directive, even while being impacted by the client, allows for a space of true transformation. This is a nuanced, essential conversation for any therapist committed to staying client-centred in practice.
