In this episode, we begin by reflecting on the counselling interventions and issues raised in episode 1: non-paternity. We then introduce a new case about John* and his mother Eileen and the issue of non-disclosure about a genetic diagnosis in the family. If you haven’t listened to episode 1, start there first.
