Mer om författaren

Dr Elaine Kasket, C.Psychol., is an HCPC-Registered Counselling Psychologist. She is well acquainted with the "portfolio" professional identity that is familiar to so many counselling psychologists, having worked as a trainer, practitioner, supervisor, researcher, Principal Lecturer, and Head of Programmes within the field. She is passionate about psychologists sharing their knowledge with the world and so now divides her time between her practice and writing for a general audience. She is the author of All the Ghosts in the Machine: Illusions of Immortality in the Digital Age (Little, Brown UK, 2019).
