In this episode of the Perfect Flow podcast I talk with therapist William Pullen about existential psychotherapy for mental health and his concept of empathy runs, where the therapy takes place outdoors and involves movement. William has a depth of knowledge and experience about the theory behind psychotherapy and practical experience from years working with clients.
The topics we cover:
- William’s personal experience with mental health
- Traditional cognitive behavioral therapy vs existential psychotherapy
- Running for mental health
- How he includes movement and running in therapy sessions
- Vulnerability vs collaboration
- Awareness of feelings
- “Modelling” for the client
- The future of Empathy Runs and Dynamic Running Therapy
