Poh GanOur recent two-part conversation with our beautiful colleague, Amiee Pember, an AuDHDer perinatal psychologist, has quietly become the most downloaded episode on the The Practitioner’s Heart.
Poh GanWhen I first imagined The Practitioner’s Heart Podcast, I wanted it to feel like sitting down with a trusted colleague who understands both the beauty and the heaviness of our work. So it felt especially meaningful to have Dr Louise Hayes join me for the very first episode. Because she was the one who encouraged me to really step into buddhism and therapist well-being.
Poh GanA psychologist shares the inner dialogue before launching her podcast—and what Buddhist practice reveals about fear, self-worth, and doing what matters anyway.
Poh GanIn Part 1, I shared my journey as an Asian, neurodivergent woman integrating psychology and Buddhist practice. In Part 2, I want to talk more about the rise of process-based therapy approach, the importance of understanding ancient wisdom in its fullness, and the deeper questions about decolonising spirituality in Western psychology.
