In this episode, Katie discusses the challenges she faced when a client brought up a topic closely related to her personal life and her identity, and how it triggered her own biases and judgments. Katie reflects on her initial reactions and the impact it had on her therapeutic relationship with the client. She shares the process of navigating through her countertransference and the importance of seeking consultation and support. Katie emphasizes the need for self-care and self-reflection in order to be an effective and compassionate therapist.
