In this episode of the Meaning of the Minds podcast, we dive deep into the ideological capture of clinical counseling, exploring how postmodern philosophy has influenced the field and driven the push for "advocacy" within mental health services. Join me as I interview Suzannah Alexander, who was removed from her counseling graduate program for challenging the pervasive DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) ideology. We discuss the fixation on "lived experience" in peer services, the role of DEI as a new form of religious fundamentalism, and the challenges of counseling clients who don't fit the DEI mold.
Together, we examine the contradictions and hypocrisies within DEI/CRT/Woke ideologies, the implications for mental health professionals, and whether there's hope for reforming the field. We also share our experiences with the growing ideological pressures in counseling education and offer a critical perspective on the push for social justice within the profession. Tune in for an eye-opening discussion on the intersection of ideology and psychology.
Plus, my latest beer adventures in Vancouver, BC, including a bizarre yet memorable visit to Storm Brewing—a must-hear story for any beer enthusiast.
Stay tuned for insights, critiques, and a candid conversation that questions the direction of modern counseling and psychology.
