E74: The Invisible Barrier: Aphantasia in the Therapy Room, with Carley, Christina and Katie

  • Summary

  • Today your hosts psychotherapists Christina Crowe and Katie Richardson, love making invisible things visible and are talking about a lesser known condition called Aphantasia, and how it shows up in the therapy session room. We are joined by our friend and colleague, psychotherapist Carley Richards from Ottawa, who shares our interest in talking about all these neat things that crop up as we learn more and more about neurodivergent brains. Katie, Carls and I talk about: Their own personal experiences at opposite ends of the visualization spectrum as therapists, and as clients themselves. The predominance of visual techniques in psychotherapy interventions and the implications for someone with hypophantasia or aphantasia. How therapists can notice whether a client might not be able to visualize and how to adjust their approach accordingly.
