Great interview. The information was very instructive and educational. Learnt a lot. Keep up the good work. The country needs professionals like you – None traditional, out of the box kind of approach. Looking forward to more of those interviews.
This psychologist speaks about helping a patient to achieve the outcome that they want. I think this is very important as some professionals try to help you achieve what is important to them. Very interesting podcast!!
This is was great to listen too. She seem to have a very relax way of working with people that I would totally feel comfortable with. Someone recommend this podcast, it is insightful and she seem to be very outside the box. I like that she talks about outcomes that matter to me as the clients
A positive approach to providing treatment to a patient.
Positivity helps in so many ways. I enjoyed the discussion about relapse management vs sustaining progress management.
Enjoyed it. Thank you.

After listening to Ms Mockett rogue technique of psychology, it is not an enigma. I call it “innovative psychology.” Her strategy of incorporating business with psychology targets the root of the problem rather than the symptoms. In that way she not only tackles the symptoms but removes the problem with all its roots. This is psychology for the future. Ms Mockett has found the way forward. I see possibilities. I can see her writing books and teaching not only this generation but also the next, this breakthrough way of psychology. She has begun this radical approach that brings results and she needs to move forward with it. Her way is the best way. I’m proud of your achievement Ms Mockett. Go forward! Make history!
