Dr. Shelder deserves a freaking trophy for trying to set his own field right. Keep up the good fight- you have many colleagues who are right behind you and fighting for the same cause !
@@psychiatrypsychotherapy6939 it just occured to me, and nobody has requested it yet, but we need a "Shedler-origins" episode, where we get to hear about Shedlers humble beginnings, struggles, and how he came to be the clinician he is today....
As a person with depression and anxiety, I have found the assistance of my counselors invaluable. Now, as a social worker who is working on obtaining clinical experience myself, I find this talk to be helpful, realistic, and affirming. Thank you so much for this podcast.
I want to say thank you to both of you for providing such rich content for anyone to understand and comprehend psychoanalysis on a different level rather than books/papers. Currently, I am in the midst of my second-year studies in psychology, taking a course on personality and social psychology. Intriguingly, the University courses at this University in Australia seem to reject the very structure of personality, dismissing it as lacking sufficient empirical evidence. As a result, we have only explored the trait perspective and swiftly transitioned to social psychology. This academic approach leaves me disheartened. The sidelining of psychoanalysis in modern psychology education (I can only speak for the University I go to), not only in one course but seemingly across the board in all courses, is troubling. It seems as though psychoanalysis has been reduced to a relic of the past, criticised without fair examination or nuanced understanding.
I like how he paused on that step of recognition and the why for it. I think it's subtle and hard to miss. It reminds me of ernesto spinellis work on sedimentation, just drawing awareness or recognition to a sedimented structure or belief and lingering there can be insightful.
Could you make a video with Dr. Schedler on Borderline Personality ? I would be very interested to know his point of view as a psychodynamic psychologist 🙂
Great interview, it clarifies very well the patterns of our personalities and how they relate to others. I loved the practical way Shedler explains it. I was struck by the idea that using a model is a somewhat impossible strategy because of the different rhythms, patterns, and meanings that can exist in a relationship. In relation to emotions, I understand that Panksepp conceptualizes them as always conscious. The unconscious would be those patterns that are established trying to solve the problem that raised the emotions in the first place.
Yes, I don't understand how anything can be conscious unless brought out of the unconscious first. The resolution of conscious issues must be understood as the unconscious is examined. Digging into the unconscious always meets with enormous resistance. 😮😂😅😢
His whole argument that a personality cannot be pathological or constitute a "disorder" because it's a "personality" or a "personality style" (and no personality can truly be pathological) fully rests on intuition. However, this is not obvious at all, EVEN IF using these labels has bad effects, as he argues, and even if personalities distribute on a continuum, as he also argues and also seems true. The idea that there are personality disorders which are pathological may remain true at the analytical level, and help accurately describe and understand the phenomenon.
Most people are aware of their feelings unless they have false illusions of their dysfunctional childhoods. These would be the challenges for professionals.
PLEASE DO ALL PERSONALITY TYPES WITH DR JONATHAN SHEDLER, PLEASE!! IT IS GOLD!!❤

I just love listening to Dr. Shedler - he puts such complex psychoanalytic concepts so simply, but still without losing the depth of it!

Wowww absolutely fantastic Dr. SHEDLER
this is one of my all time favorite episodes from the show. Also, I would be very interested in an episode looking into the evidence for EMDR
EMDR is effective pseudo-science

to those who hold lil'shed close to their hearts, he has never left...🤣🤣🤣
Many people feel "bad" or "guilty", but are not diagnosed as ocpd
Personality Style. Who are you? How can a personality be a disorder? In the extreme, difficult or dysfunction, maybe.
What about anti-social personality? Can we call it a disorder? Since it goes aginst our very nature, i.e. being social beings
Most people are aware of their feelings unless they have false illusions of their dysfunctional childhoods. These would be the challenges for professionals.
The parents are the ones who require treatment, not the client. Or family therapy sessions. 😢😮😅❤
Jonathan Shedler is a Ph.D. Not an M.D.
You are right! My editor got that one wrong.
