Tough Discussions

Episode 018 - Do you need therapy?


Listen Later

This is one of those topics where I am reminded that pervasive ignorance is not collective wisdom.

The basis on which contemporary methods and modalities have been developed is inspired by a distortion of what we believe to be human nature. Secular thinking about human traits have deprived us of our humanness while promising us fulfilment.

Instead, all it has done is given us hyper-individuality with horribly fractured social structures to the point of an almost total erosion of the family unit. This challenges our most basic of needs to belong and be significant in a social hierarchy that feels fulfilling and significant.

In this episode, I unpack why our thinking around therapy, counselling, and even coaching needs to change if we hope to overcome the massive social ills that seem to be worsening each day.
