  • Great interviewing & topics

    Have just discovered this podcast and as a 4th year Psychology student, I am thoroughly enjoying the quality of the discussions.

    Loved the interview with James Hollis - I hope I am also still practicing and contributing meaningfully to the profession at 84 years.

    Thank you team!

  • Conversation that hits the right topics

    Pete, the host, is well-informed, experienced, engaging and knows what clinicians and mental health consumers are thinking, feeling and doing (and maybe not doing yet).

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Dr. Douglas Flemons - Rethinking Empathy
Q: Can one experience empathy and sympathy at the same time?
Yes, filling in resonance fatigue and distinguishing the experiences is key to managing both.
Dr. Douglas Flemons - Rethinking Empathy
Q: What prompted you to write this book?
The provocative nature of Paul Bloom's book Against Empathy instigated my curiosity into understanding the distinctions between empathy and sympathy.
Dr. Jesse Finkelstein - A DBT Guide to Navigating Stress, Emotions, and Relationships
Q: What do you hope readers might take away from the book?
I hope folks take away a couple of things. One, there are skills, tools available that can help reduce your suffering. Pain in life is inevitable. And you don't need to augment that pain by engaging in behaviors in ways that cause you additional suffering.
Dr. Jesse Finkelstein - A DBT Guide to Navigating Stress, Emotions, and Relationships
Q: What inspired you to write the Real Skills for Real Life, and what gap were you hoping to fill in the world of mental health literature?
The inspiration stemmed from the recognition that psychologists often have effective interventions but struggle to present these skills in engaging ways that patients can easily metabolize. The aim was to create accessible resources based on evidence that could help individuals manage emotional dysregulation effectively.
Drs. Robyn Walser & Darrah Westrup - You Are Not Your Trauma
Q: How would you help a client to distinguish between a useful coping strategy versus where it's more avoidance masked as coping?
It's a workability question; if it's moving you in the direction of your values, it's useful.
