Episode 3: Reality Therapy and the Power of Choice in the Wizarding World

What do a school bully, a rule-following genius, and a flying broom have in common? In this episode, we journey into chapters 9 and 10 of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone to explore how Reality Therapy helps us understand behavior, bullying, and belonging. Discover how Draco Malfoy and Hermione Granger's choices reflect their unmet needs—and how we, as counselors and educators, can guide students toward more empowering decisions using Glasser’s WDEP model. Because in both magic and real life, the power to change always begins with a choice.
