About this listen
In this debut episode, host Tony Yang, a school counselor, steps into the early chapters of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone to explore how a school counselor could support a young wizard discovering who he really is. Using Person-Centered and Narrative Therapy, Tony examines Harry’s emotional journey from feeling unwanted and invisible to reclaiming a powerful new identity in the Wizarding World. Through scenes like Hagrid’s arrival and Harry’s first steps into Diagon Alley, listeners will see how empathy, unconditional positive regard, and reauthoring one’s story can be life changing. This episode also invites listeners to reflect on their own “problem-saturated” stories and consider the sparkling moments that signal transformation. Perfect for fans of both counseling and fantasy, this thoughtful blend of theory and storytelling reimagines Harry’s world through a deeply human lens. Whether you're a counselor, educator, or just a fan of Harry Potter, this session offers insight, reflection, and heart.
