20. Dr. Roger McFillin: Mental Health in the Age of Misinformation
You Must Be Some Kind of Therapist - A podcast by Stephanie Winn - Mondays
Categories:
How can a culture obsessed with mental health be so unwell? Dr. McFillin and I explore the problems of diagnostic expansion and over-medicalization; secondary gain from identifying as ill; and the pathologization of normal human emotions. We discuss how evidence-based practices can be valuable, even as we challenge the flaws riddling the medical model of psychology. And we share practical knowledge about health, evolutionary psychology, and resilience to adverse experiences.
