  • Episode 35. Envy. A hidden force within human relations
    Apr 29 2023
    Envy can arise wherever there exists inequality between people: in societies and families, between siblings, genders, and generations. “Envy is the tax which all distinction must pay” (R.W. Emerson). Envy has a bad reputation, at times even considered taboo, and yet still it proves to be ever-present. This episode explores the psychoanalytic understanding of envy and its implications for society and therapeutic processes, such as the phenomenon known as ‘negative therapeutic reaction.’ However, envy is not only destructive, but is also a driving force of human development.

  • Episode 34. Dissociative Identity Disorder - Secret Lives
    Feb 28 2023
    The idea of split personality is fertile ground for stories of great imagination—while regrettably also inspiring and perpetuating numerous misunderstandings that continue to cling to the kind of personality organization that we will take up in this episode. *there is a small cultural variation in the episode. We use the German abbreviation "DIS" for Dissociative Identity Disorder. In English, however, the expression "DID" is common. We think that the episode is still easy to understand and hope you enjoy listening to it.

clear, engaging, bitesize

lovely introduction to psychology, well performed. II'm applying for psychiatry training and this feels like a nice grounding in the psychology /psychotherapy principles. The only thing that would add to it I feel would be having two presenters discussing the concepts in a more natural way than just reading a script , which is essentially what this is.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
