a genuine must-read 🔽🔽🔽
I simply cannot tell you how happy I am to see this as the most-read article on @heraldscotland during #AutismAcceptanceWeek. It was written by a 14 year old autistic girl, and there's no paywall. Please, please read it. It's so important. heraldscotland.com/opinion/242291…
Just 36 hours left to respond to the Scottish Government's proposals for ending conversion practices in Scotland So if you've been putting it off, now's the time to do it! It only takes a few minutes to respond - details here: equality-network.org/CP
Conversion practices are harmful to LGBTQA+ people – and they are done because people believe that we are wrong or need to be “fixed”. Civil protection orders could protect people from this harm. Help end conversion practices in Scotland: equality-network.org/cp
If the Scottish Parliament is going to ban staff from wearing "personalised lanyards and/or pins and badges showing support for social movements and towards campaigns or organisations" then poppies absolutely should be part of that ban. heraldscotland.com/news/24201876.…
We know that people are being pushed back and forth from different health services, deemed too ‘high risk’ for some and not ‘high risk’ enough for others. It's unacceptable that anyone has to go through this when they’re already struggling.
i love this

As we head into LGBTQ+ History Month, there's one key message we should get across: We have always been here, and we will always be here 💪 Trans people exist, trans youth exist, trans lives matter, we all deserve healthcare, and trans people are not going anywhere 🏳️⚧️
Happy LGBT+ History Month! 🌈🌟 This is a time for the LGBT+ community & allies to come together to celebrate how far we have come & use our voices to fight for the rights of all LGBT+ people. Remember now, more than ever, that your existence & joy as an LGBT+ person is vital.
I had the pleasure of meeting @MrDerekFrew through being an MSYP. He has always been very genuine, friendly, progressive and showed a great deal of warmth to everyone. He's been truly incredible, I wish him a happy retirement!

But it was the fact that Rogers description of the therapeutic attitudes had shifted in a subtle but significant way. In his 1951 book, a sacred text for the purist tribe, Rogers wrote: "In client-centered therapy the client finds in the counselor a genuine alter ego in an 2/7
operational and technical sense - a self which has temporarily diverted itself (so far as possible) of its own self hood, except for the one quality of endeavoring to understand." A position which highly valued positive regard and empathy, whilst affirming the righteousness 3/7
of staying within the client's frame of reference. Yet in this 1957 paper, Rogers had written about the significance of the therapist to be congruent and integrated within the relationship. This implied, for the first time, that perhaps the therapist's frame of reference 4/7
could be of some value to the therapeutic process. A position which was considered blasphemy to many - if the therapist shared from their frame of reference, the non-directive approach would seize to exist. Unacceptable. And this was the start of a never ending debate 5/7
around what interventions were person-centred or not. Whether the core conditions (CC) were necessary and sufficient or not - but by this stage, the CCs were already understood differently. For some they were to authentically offer unconditional positive regard (UPR) 6/7
and empathy. For others, they were to be authentic whilst offering UPR and empathy. The difference being subtle but incredibly significant. And Rogers hadn't worked with Gendlin yet by this point - which complicated matters even further. 7/7
The problem with Rogers' assertion in his 1957 paper, wasn't just the assertion that: "No other conditions are necessary. If these six conditions exist and continue over a period of time, this is sufficient. The process of constructive personality change will follow." 1/7
