The new RCI guidelines on BSc Clinical Psychology have left me feeling confused, disappointed, and concerned I shudder at the thought of my 19-year-old self being placed in a therapy room with clients who are already vulnerable due to past adversity, childhood trauma, and current struggles with life transitions, grief, or mental illness Reflecting on the American Psychological Association's code of ethics, particularly the principle of beneficence and nonmaleficence, I worry whether these guidelines truly uphold the commitment to do no harm if we cannot help I sincerely hope the RCI reconsiders these guidelines to prevent placing such young and inexperienced individuals in potentially harmful situations and takes corrective action for the betterment of our profession and the well-being of our clients #MentalHealth #ClinicalPsychology #RCIGuidelines #TherapyEthics #PsychologyStudents #APAethics #DoNoHarm #Beneficence #Nonmaleficence #MentalHealthProfessionals #TherapyRoom #ClientSafety #ProfessionalStandards #YoungPsychologists #PsychologyEducation #EthicalPractice #ProtectVulnerableClients #RCIreform #PsychologyConcerns #MentalHealthAdvocacy

For sure practicing to "look after yourself" is something essentially everyone is having to do in the 21st Digital Century having somehow, sort of, unintentionally lost personal space for any reasonable work/life balance along the way. Restoring some work/life balance without a formal "Right To Disconnect" is going to take some effort, self-advocacy and self-discipline as, it appears breaking the habit of ending-up effectively ON 24/7 suffering separation anxiety or even addiction to the insidious display screen devices is epidemic. https://lnkd.in/d_C_KvjX https://lnkd.in/gdeP-4U https://lnkd.in/dEhe3fX #PublicHealth #DigitalEyeHealth #OccupationalHealth

'Although the modern American psychological establishment alIows all kinds of people to practice psychotherapy without ever having been in therapy themselves-a true travesty, I think, as many would agree-a therapist's best training comes from his or her own therapy. And the more' in-depth that therapy, the better the therapist's training. Several months of counseling with a religious counselor, drug and alcohol counselor, social worker, school psychologist, behavioral psychologist, analyst, or psychiatrist is of little value to the therapist in transforming her "economy of desire." It is not until one has plumbed the depths of one's own torturously complicated pleasures, desires, and suffering that one is in any way prepared for the variety and "perversity" of the pleasures, desires, and suffering one's analysands must be brought to explore, and the variety of feelings, desires, and displeasures one is likely to experience in listening to them.'

Many mental health experts are debating the new RCI standards for B.Sc Clinical Psychology, therefore I wanted to express my thoughts: Just a few of us felt ready to start working after obtaining our master's degrees. Even yet, we frequently require further monitoring and training. In order to guarantee that we have well-trained MHPs, the RCI should demand further training before issuing licences. Also, those of us who have both a bachelor's and a master's degree want some clarification and answer for the same. What do you think about the new licensing process? #Psychology #MHPs #RCI #Mentalhealth
