Episode 129: Conversion “therapy”: The Non-Effective, Non-Therapy, No One Needs
Episode 129 of our book read/podcast covering major topics in various fields of psychology moves us into a continuation of the Year of Clickbait with PSEUDOSCIENCE! This Spring we are going to be talking about pseudoscience. Who believes it? Why do they believe it? Is there a kernel of truth to some of the pseudoscientific beliefs people have? And more…
In this episode Daniel and Thomas discuss conversion therapy. What it is, where it comes from, and why it exists in a realm of things that have no support, but people still push it as useful. This harmful practice is used today to a wide degree and legal in practice in 30 states. We also discuss the issues where psychology could push back and why it still exists.
Warning: This episode does contain some graphic information and some gross content and all season we will be talking about some less than savory topics.
