On this week's Career Therapy Podcast (e.126), we sit down with Lara Effland, a Mental Health Leader dedicated to creating safe and impactful spaces for clinicians and clients. She is the Director of Adult Programs at Equip, the founder of the Clinician Development Collective and the host of the Clinician to Clinician Podcast.

Together we discuss how to get comfortable being perfectly imperfect in our careers, how to calm down and find moments of flow at work, and how to leverage your strengths to increase your levels of confidence, resilience and tolerance.
