As a therapist, I found this validating. I often find myself sceptical of theories, and while many things can be helpful, discussing them as facts or absolutes makes me feel uncomfortable. This conversation almost offers a framework to hold this mixed space. Thank you both!
Hey Helen. Thank you so much for watching. I am delighted you found it useful. Indeed, in therapy world we use extrapolate neuroscience language and 'facts' with a level of certainty that I can only qualify of psychotherapy specific Dunning-Kruger effect - if that makes sense. Still, neuroscience can be very useful for therapy (well, that's what I think), so it's about keeping the good and not getting carried away with the 'neurobollocks'. You engaging critically is very much appreciated. 🙏
