Episode: Episode 457: Dr. Pauline Thompson. The Courage and Healing of Our Own Truth
Description: Dr. Pauline Thompson is a US Navy veteran who served aboard the USS Samuel Gompers (AD-37) in the Nuclear Repair division, during the 1988 Persian Gulf conflict. Subsequent to her service, she completed a Bachelor of Science degree in Psychology at DeSales University and a PhD in Psychology from Temple University. Pauline has a way of identifying, and cogently articulating, that most crucial element in the work of psychotherapy: the importance of the self-awareness of the therapist. Because it is this which dictates the foundation of the therapeutic relationship, and thus the course of healing.
