  • In this episode, Dr. David Puder sits down with Dr. Stijn Vanheule, professor of clinical psychology and psychoanalysis, to challenge misconceptions about psychosis and explore paths to understanding and recovery. They discuss psychosis as more than a clinical label, delving into its connection to existential struggles and creative expression.

    Dr. Vanheule explains primary-process thinking, how traumatic events can disrupt the mind's coherence, and the importance of empathic listening in therapy. Drawing on examples like Carl Jung's Red Book and Annie Rogers' creative processes, the conversation highlights the therapeutic potential of integrating psychoanalysis, creativity, and supportive environments.

    Whether you’re a mental health professional, caregiver, or curious listener, this episode provides insights into how psychotic experiences can be understood, respected, and addressed through innovative approaches.
