Tue, 21 Feb 2023 12:30:00 -0000

It’s no secret that we are in a loneliness epidemic. “What is loneliness, and how do I know if this is the feeling I’m experiencing?” In this episode we validate the increase in loneliness post-pandemic, and how as a society we are attempting to find our way back to connection, both inward and with others. We deconstruct the definition of loneliness, the difference between loneliness and social isolation, loneliness and singlehood, the ACT approach to coping with loneliness, what gets in the way of healthy connection, and methods to overcome these barriers. Dr. Nina and Dr. Carissa reflect on their friendship at the beginning of the episode, which began in graduate school, as well as their take on life-purpose work.

Dr. Carissa Gustafson is a Licensed Clinical Psychologist based in Los Angeles, CA, as well as an Adjunct Professor and Adjunct Clinical Supervisor at Pepperdine University.

Understanding anxious attachment as that is a style that often has “codependent traits” and how to start to heal. They unpack co-regulation and how many struggles with self-regulation and why.

Disclosing Trauma in New Relationships Part 2 with MaryCatherine McDonald, Ph.D. and Paul Chamberlain - Episode 25

Thu, 08 Dec 2022 12:00:00 -0000

Scenarios: MC McDonald, Ph.D., and Paul Chamberlain revisit the topic of disclosing trauma in relationships. This time around, discussing actual scenarios like how to disclose on your first dates, the mid-point in a relationship, and the eventual grappling late in a relationship.

With all new promising relationships, the eventual disclosure of past loves and past lives must enter the conversation. But what about past trauma? How do you properly communicate to a new partner about a time that was far from perfect; and changed you irrevocably? And how do you both navigate the new relationship waters when you both possess a defining traumatic experience(s)? Does one defer to the other? Does “little t” trauma lose ground to “Big T” trauma?... Is that even a thing?

MaryCatherine McDonald, Ph.D., is a research professor and life coach who specializes in the psychology and philosophy of trauma. She has been researching, lecturing, and publishing on the neuroscience, psychology, and lived experience of trauma since beginning her Ph.D. research in 2009.
