Misinformation galore.
I really, really wanted to like this podcast. But as a psychotherapist myself, I found myself cringing time and again as they shared incorrect and skewed ideas about psychology - at least during the first episode. I think they need a psych professional to help create the show, if they want to make it informative instead of misinformed. For one, one of the hosts makes a comment that totally stigmatizes going to therapy (I thought this show was promoting the importance of the invisible, not poo-pooing it). Secondly, there is NO way of knowing if that first therapist “S" went to was what they call Freudian (which is not a kind of therapy people do, they are referring to something along the lines of depth psychology) and it’s a shame they concluded that, giving depth psychology a misled and bad name. A mindfulness or CBT based therapist could also be just as unethical and scared by a client. All we can determine is that she could get her license revoked for abandoning a client like that. I stopped listening at this point because I was so put off by all the misinformation they were sending out. (The “mindfulness based therapy” the last therapist did was not what I know to be mindfulness based therapy, she was just doing meditation.) And lastly, I will say — I believe the best therapists use aspects of all the modalities she talked about. Different thoughts need different kinds of attention — or they need all those modalities at the same time. The idea is to “mindfully” witness your thoughts instead of just having them unconsciously. Then you can, mindfully, replace them AND you can follow them to see if there is anything meaningful attached.Read full review »

I really enjoyed the content of the first episode. However, it took me 3 tries to make it through the episode because of the focal fry of one of the hosts. Once I noticed the gravely, croaking tone at the end of her sentences I could barely pay attention to what she said. If the vocal fry does...Read full review »
