The energetic and emotional demands

The energetic and emotional demands that these practitioners experienced from
their psychotherapy work, as well as from wider work pressures, are consistent with
the finding that a sizeable minority of clinical psychologists experience high levels of
emotional exhaustion (Madden, 2009). However, given these demands, it was
interesting that attention to their self-care, while expressed by all as a need, was a
less dominant theme in the clinical psychologists’ journals and seemed to be a need
that was not being adequately met. In an aptly titled article, ‘Do as we say but not as
we do’, Walsh and Cormack’s (1994) early, but still relevant, research showed that
while clinical psychologists taught self-care skills, they failed to practice them. Reasons
reported for this included working in organisations that did not value supportive work
practices, as well as clinical psychologists’ own fears of being judged from showing a
need for support. It seems that clinical psychology may still only be slowly moving on
from a legacy where competent, self-reliant practice was overvalued. On this, Barnett
and Cooper (2009) have argued that psychologists need to work harder to develop a
culture of self-care that is integrated into their professional identities.
This research shows how not engaging in self-care practices (and not practising
what we preach) is one issue that feeds into significant self-doubt and feelings of
being a fraud. This study provides further evidence for the ongoing struggle with selfdoubt when practising psychotherapy that has been previously reported in both
quantitative and qualitative studies (Cushway & Tyler, 1996; Mehta, 2006; Theriault
& Gazzola, 2005). An advantage in the current study was that the clinical
psychologists’ reflections were made over time and it was informative to see the
change from self-doubt to increased confidence, after they had experienced some
validation of their skills and development and affirmation of their theoretical
knowledge. Bandura’s (1997) self-efficacy model is useful here, as he describes selfbelief arising from four sources: enactive mastery experiences (success in tasks),
vicarious experiences (such as learning from other models), verbal persuasion (for
example, feedback from others) and feedback from own physiological and affective
states (for example, the ability to manage anxiety responses). Psychotherapeutic
work is normally a private activity and there are generally few opportunities for
observing others and receiving feedback on one’s own work. This research provides
evidence for the immediate value of such opportunities in enhancing energy and
confidence. Engaging in CPD activities throughout one’s career is required now by
professional bodies (British Psychological Society, 2009; Psychological Society of
Ireland, 2008), which should help psychologists access more support from managers
for time and funding to attend regular training events. However, the unsatisfactory
reality is that this does not always translate into practice.
