CRAIG JOHNSONCounselling & Psychotherapy

The Therapy Files

Craig Johnson and Callum Jones

Callum Jones and I host a counselling podcast. We are interested in discussing topics that matter – both inside the counselling room – issues which are commonly brought into therapy such as grief, anxiety, depression. Yet, we’re also a podcast that has a dual focus, also looking outside of the therapy room at social and political issues which effect the world around us on a daily basis such as mental health awareness and wellbeing.

Published on a bi-monthly on 4th & 18th!
