Bobby talks with Dr. Bryan Violette about his faith story, psychology and culture, and his new endeavor of hosting "the Catholic Sinner Show." While studying moral theology at Holy Apostles College and Seminary in Cromwell, CT, Dr. Violette volunteered in local impoverished areas and learned firsthand how devastating mental illness can be to family life. This impassioned him to attend to the growing need for professional mental health care from a Catholic standpoint and to pursue advanced studies in clinical psychology at the Institute for the Psychological Sciences at Divine Mercy University. Dr. Violette began working at the CatholicPsych Institute(https://catholicpsych.com/) in 2015. He now works as the Chief of Staff. He contributed to the development of a new model for providing direct services: Integrated Daily Dialogic Mentorship (IDDM). Given the success of the model, it was only natural to begin training others. Thus, Dr. Violette contributed to the development of the CatholicPsych Model of Applied Personalism program, in which he currently maintains the role of both Training Director and Dean of Students. Dr. Violette is also the creator of the “Catholic Sinner Show”(https://www.youtube.com/@CathSinnerShow) which provides a welcoming space for individuals from different walks of life to engage in conversation from a variety of faith, political and cultural perspectives.

Informed by John Paul II's teachings, she went on to work as a style editor in New York City before ultimately landing at the Catholic fashion label Litany NYC. Lillian currently resides in Pennsylvania with her orange tabby cat, Tito. -- This episode was sponsored by Word of Life, a religious education curriculum created in partnership by the Augustine Institute and Ignatius Press to help Catholic schools and parishes meet the challenges and opportunities of proclaiming the Gospel.
