Today’s Guest: Dr. Kirsten Ramey, or "Doc," as her clients refer to her, is a board-certified telemental health provider. With a background in entertainment, she used Frank Sinatra's famous line, "If I can make it there, I can make it anywhere," to influence her choice for her grad school internship placement with the department of corrections. Although Dr. Ramey has worked within the community, in the department of juvenile justice, in private practice and in academic settings, her most enjoyable work has been with creative folx. As a mother of five, one of whom is a former Broadway star, Doc uses a creative approach to help clients rewrite their own stories.

SHOW TOPICS

  • The connection between filmmaking and therapy, and how Dr. Ramey’s transition between the two made perfect sense

  • The concept of bringing everything we are and everything we are not into a client relationship

  • Seeing things your client may not be aware of, like an audience often does with characters in a story, and allowing your client to reach their own “aha” moment at the right time
