"Finding Our Values In Our Pain" A conversation with Dr Joe Oliver

Over the last couple of years many people have been reflecting on how closely our working lives are aligned with our values. For health professionals in particular the gap between how we want things to be, and how they are, can cause huge distress.

I talk about this and other topics with consultant clinical psychologist Dr. Joe Oliver who is an expert in acceptance and commitment therapy as well as an associate professor at UCL.

He also leads an exercise for listeners towards the end of our conversation that involves mindfully tapping into values.
