  • The cognitive revolution
    May 1 2026

    Episode 12 explores the cognitive revolution and why cognition becomes central to psychotherapy. We trace a key shift: the mind as an information-processing system worth examining, including memory, perception, attention, and beliefs.

    We then unpack Albert Ellis’ REBT and the ABC model (beliefs as the driver of emotional distress), followed by Aaron Beck’s empirical contributions: automatic thoughts, cognitive distortions, the cognitive triad in depression, and the move towards evidence-based cognitive therapy. This episode sets up the bridge into CBT by showing how cognition and behaviour begin to integrate.

  • The Existential Vacuum (Why People Feel Empty)
    Apr 24 2026

    Episode 11 introduces Viktor Frankl’s logotherapy and the clinical relevance of meaning. We explore the existential vacuum—how a loss of meaning can present as boredom, depression, or compliance with roles—and why this can become a hidden driver of distress.

    We also unpack two key logotherapeutic ideas: paradoxical intention (approaching feared experiences to disrupt anxiety cycles) and dereflection (reducing symptom-focused preoccupation by reorienting towards purpose and values). This episode positions meaning as an essential part of integrative psychotherapy, especially when “functioning” is present but vitality is missing.

  • The Conditions That Heal (Carl Rogers & Person-Centred Therapy)
    Apr 17 2026

    Episode 10 explores Carl Rogers’ person-centred therapy and why the therapeutic relationship itself can be the mechanism of change. We unpack the core conditions—accurate empathy, congruence, and unconditional positive regard—and discuss how these shape self-concept, safety, and growth in therapy.

    This episode clarifies the deeper logic of Rogers’ approach and why it remains a foundational lens within integrative psychotherapy.
