Psychological Responses to Climate Anxiety
Listen now
Description
In this episode Nina Cook asks how a therapist can respond to a client’s climate anxieties, when they may also be feeling the same fears. She speaks to Paul Rhodes who is a collaborative research fellow at the Sydney environment Institute. Paul has helped establish a research project with a group of school age young people to explore ways of responding to climate related distress. We also meet one of the project’s young participants to talk about how she is learning to “stay with the trouble” and reduce her feelings of powerlessness in the face of climate change.
