Welcome to a latest episode of Peplau’s Ghost. We are thrilled to have in this episode Dr. Mary Moeller from Lutheran Pacific University where is currently retired and now works as an expert witness and consults with MDM Psychiatric Associates.

Dr Moeller shares her vast experience as a psychiatric-mental health nurse and continues to hold the profession accountable as an expert witness. We discuss that psychotherapy is a necessary part of the work in psychiatry and correlates with the wholistic approach of nursing as a profession.
Dr Moeller advocates for using psychotherapy in all practices to help protect providers from stepping in their own landmines. Listen to this emotional journey of Dr Moeller discovering psychiatric nursing to discovering her calling of helping people with the power of psychotherapy.

November 19, 2024 Dr. Kate Wheeler
Send us Fan Mail
Welcome to a new episode of Peplau’s Ghost. We are thrilled to have in this episode Dr Kate Wheeler from Fairfield University. Many may know Dr Wheeler from her textbook Psychotherapy for Advanced Practice Psychiatric Nurses which has won the AJN Book of the year twice (2015 & 2018). We have an insightful discussion with Dr Wheeler who shares her extensive history of being the only nurse in her psychoanalysis training and how she went from being an ICU nurse to finding her way into psychiatric-mental health nursing. Dr Wheeler started one of the first PMHNP programs in the country and has led many of the first initiatives in keeping psychotherapy content within PMHNP programs. Dr Wheeler is also vulnerable in sharing that she too was scared to say the wrong thing on her first psychotherapy sessions and relied on consultation and supervision to help her through this initial imposter syndrome and even calls on others today with difficult situations. We can’t say enough great things about Dr Wheeler and stay tuned as there may be a part 2 in early 2025!

Welcome to a new episode of Peplau’s Ghost. In this episode we change direction and invite Dr Cynthia Handrup from the University of Illinois at Chicago to discuss her passion of performing and teaching psychotherapy. Dr. Handrup is a recognized expert and has numerous examples of presenting and publishing on psychiatric nurses using psychotherapy. She is able to share her perspective of the journey of psychiatric nurses using psychotherapy going back decades. She shares her success stories and imparts some lessons she has learned along the way. She also shared her preferred form of therapy that she practices and teaches. I think we all learned something from Dr Handrup on this episode and hope you will too.

October 01, 2024 Analysis: Houses Shaped Like Penises
Send us Fan Mail
Welcome to a HOT new episode of the podcast by PMHNPs for Everyone. In this episode we discuss the founding father of psychotherapy Dr Sigmund Freud and all his connections to sex and the devious drives that live in our unconscious. We review how foundational psychoanalysis is to doing psychotherapy and how it is currently being used in practice. Dr Wesemann uses word association to foster conversation with Dr Sean Convoy, Dr Kate Melino and Dr Melissa Chapman about psychoanalysis and discuss what everyone thinks of when they hear the terms: Freud (Oral, Anal, Sex with mom, etc), Ego (being full of yourself), Interpretation (limits with our own cultural framework and how therapist have interpretation in all forms of therapy), Unconscious and Defense mechanisms (Not another board exam item!). The episode wraps up with discussion of psychoanalysis themes in popular movies and books. We review several Disney classics such as Sleeping Beauty and Little Mermaid and try not to ruin everyone’s childhood memories of how psychoanalysis themes are prevalent. Dr Sean Convoy even reports that Aladdin’s carpet ride is “full of houses shaped like penises”. Whether its accurate or not the use of psychoanalysis is important in understanding how therapy works whether you are applying or receiving it.

We review the humanistic aspect of caring for people with mental health problems and the importance of using psychotherapy along with medications. We also discuss the use of psychotherapy in community mental health centers and share our dreams of using more psychotherapy for those with and without mental disorders. Tune in!
