Jaime and Angee decide to use some of our most beloved (or hated) Disney characters and discuss their behavior from a therapeutic standpoint. This week they dive into the magical world of Beauty and the Beast where Angee clearly had some unprocessed rage she needed to work through and heal.

Highlights from this episode include: 

• The sheer spectrum of individual responses to trauma. Several of the characters had likely experienced trauma and could be diagnosed with PTSD, yet the ways in which they displayed the symptoms of their trauma both internally and externally were vastly different.
• Gaston and The Beast were, in many ways, mirror images of one another.
• Stockholm syndrome
• The Power and Control Wheel” for examining domestic violence and the tactics an
• abusive partner might use in a relationship. 

Thank you so much for listening and continuing to be a fan of the show! If you have a favorite film you’d like Angee and Jaime to therapeutically diagnose, feel free to make your suggestion by emailing
