Bron is joined by Kyle Miller (psychologist working in forensic private practice) about what it’s really like to work with people who have committed sexual or violent offences. Kyle shares how he found his way into forensic work almost by accident, and why “I work with people” has become his guiding philosophy.<\/p>\n
They chat about:
\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffd The biggest misconceptions about people who commit sexual offences
\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udffb How Kyle manages countertransference and the pressure to “fix” clients
\ud83d\udc49 Why learning forensic terminology and skills happens on the job, not at uni
\ud83d\udc49\ud83c\udfff How to build rapport with clients who don’t want to be in the room<\/p>\n
Guest: Kyle Miller, Psychologist at Melbourne Private Psychology<\/p>\n
