THE PSYCHOLOGY WORLD PODCAST

The majority of listeners of The Psychology World Podcast are between 40 and 50 years old and from conversations I've had with listeners, a lot of them have children or younger family members. As a parent, they want to protect, love and make sure their child is okay and happy whatever their age. No one wants their adult child to be suffering in silence and feel like they have no place to go, but for a wide range of reasons, sometimes an adult child doesn't want to open up despite their suffering. Therefore, in this clinical psychology podcast episode, you'll learn about the phrases adult children might use to subtly communicate or hint that there is something wrong and they're hurting and suffering. These phrases offer us a chance to explore and help them open up so we can discover why our adult child is suffering and most importantly, how to help them. By the end of this psychology podcast episode, you'll understand how to tell if your adult child is hurting by listening to them, how to help an adult child and more. If you enjoy learning about parenting, developmental psychology and mental health then this is a great episode for you.In the psychology news section, you'll learn about how satire sharpens the blade of criticism, how emotional typecasting of emergency callers may mislead investigations, and how cisnormativity impacts transgender and non-binary people.

One of the biggest criticisms against transgender individuals that I hear is that “science” says there are only two genders and a lot of transphobic people rely on “science” to back up their transphobic views. However, the reality is that science clearly shows us that there are more than two genders and there are big differences between sex, gender and gender identity. These are important distinctions to make because as aspiring and qualified psychologists, we are scientists first and foremost. Therefore, the way that we operationalise these terms is important in our clinical work and research. As a result, in this social psychology podcast episode, you'll learn how do scientists operationalise sex, gender and gender identity. You'll learn what is sex, gender and gender identity and most importantly, why science says there are more than two genders. If you enjoy learning about gender, social psychology and clinical psychology then this will be a great episode for you.LISTEN NOW!If you want to support the podcast, please check out:FREE AND EXCLUSIVE 8 PSYCHOLOGY BOOK BOXSET- https://www.subscribepage.io/psychologyboxsetDevelopmental Psychology: A Guide To Developmental and Child Psychology- https://www.connorwhiteley.net/developmentalpsychology Available from all major eBook retailers and you can order the paperback and hardback copies from Amazon, your local bookstore and local library, if you request it.

The majority of people think that if they're exhausted then the best way to fix their exhaustion is to get physical rest through sleep. Whilst this is important, it is not the only type of rest a person needs to combat fatigue and exhaustion. In fact, a lot of therapists and professionals, like Saundra Dalton-Smith, explain that rest is the most underused safe and effective alternative therapy that we have available to us. Therefore, in this clinical psychology podcast episode, you're going to learn about the seven types of rest that our body as well as mind need so we can combat exhaustion and fatigue. By the end of this episode, you'll understand why physical, mental and creative rest are important for our mental health amongst four others.

To kick off Pride Season 2025 on The Psychology World Podcast, I wanted to look at why we celebrate Pride Month. Since thankfully in June a lot of cities, communities and companies come together to celebrate Pride Month. They put up flags and companies change their logos to represent all the different genders, sexualities and the diversity of the human experience. Also, the LGBT+ community and their allies come together to party, celebrate and have a good time. Yet some people might argue that this is all pointless because they might believe that the LGBT+ community has equal rights, they don't need a month to celebrate it and it doesn't need to be shoved down their throats. However, the reality is that there are still a lot of rights, even within liberal countries that LGBT+ individuals do not have access to and the discrimination, hate crimes and intolerance that LGBT+ people face every day still exist. Therefore, in this social psychology podcast episode, you'll learn why do we celebrate Pride Month, why Pride Month isn't about pointless parties and why Pride Month is about protesting for equal rights. If you enjoy learning about LGBT+ psychology, the psychology of discrimination and social activism then this will be a perfect episode for you.LISTEN NOW!If you want to support the podcast, please check out:FREE AND EXCLUSIVE 8 PSYCHOLOGY BOOK BOXSET- https://www.subscribepage.io/psychologyboxsetSocial Psychology: A Guide To Social and Cultural Psychology- https://www.connorwhiteley.net/socioculturalpsychology Available from all major eBook retailers and you can order the paperback and hardback copies from Amazon, your local bookstore and local library, if you request it.

Whenever a client comes into our therapy room or whenever you meet a psychologist, they have certain privileges and disadvantages that you don't have. Also, you'll both have different life experiences, perspectives and focuses that you will share and you will differ in.

I don't think anyone can go through their psychology journeywithout encountering any myths about psychology. A few years ago at a gender reveal party, I was talking to my brother's dad (we have different ones) and he explained how he needed to see a psychologist because of an injury before he could go to work. Yet when he was younger and even now, he wouldn't do it because everyone back then knew psychologists only saw “crazy” people. After I explained the types of people who psychologists actually helped, he was more relaxed about going. This is just one out of the millions of myths that psychology and psychologists face every day. Therefore, in this clinical psychology podcast episode, you'll learn about the “crazy people” myth about psychology, who psychologists help and more about clinical psychology in the real world. If you enjoy learning about psychology myths, careers in psychology and mental health then this is a great episode for you.In the psychology news section, you'll learn about how insecurity increases the liking gap, how stress-based insomnia spreads to partners, and how much misconduct should there be in research.

Rape and other forms of sexual violence is beyond awful. It is one of the worse, most traumatic and devastating things that can happen to a person.

Whilst statistics might be a psychological topic that lots of aspiring and qualified psychologists dread, learning about psychometrics and psychological measurements is a lot of fun and it is really interesting.

I first became aware of media psychology in 2024 when I kept seeing media psychology training courses being advertised in The Psychologist magazine by the British Psychology Society. I had never heard of media psychology before but I checked out the courses and £100 wasn't a bad price.

To celebrate International Women's Day, I want to focus on the myth in society that feminists are men-hating individuals.

I've always found it is interesting and I like how research is starting to recognise that infants can be naturally moral.

OCD is unfortunately the type of mental health condition that laypeople abuse to some extent, as OCD is often used in a loose, cut-off-the-cuff way that decreases the severity of the condition in people's minds.

If you've read my Clinical Psychology Reflections, then you might be aware that The Psychologist Magazine by the British Psychological Society is a major source of inspiration from time to time. Yet The Psychologist never normally inspires podcast episodes, but in December 2024, they mentioned financial psychotherapy. I had never heard of this type of psychotherapy before but it focuses on improving people's relationship with money amongst other important behavioural and psychological processes. Therefore, in this clinical psychology podcast episode, you'll deep dive into what is financial psychotherapy, what does a financial psychotherapist do and much more. If you enjoy learning about mental health, the psychology of money and more then you'll greatly benefit from this episode. Note: as always absolutely nothing on this podcast is ever any sort of official relationship, financial or other form of advice.

Normally as an aspiring clinical psychologist, I don't really focus too much on how our biological processes and the nervous system impacts our mental health. I should focus on this area a lot more than I do because our physical reactions to trauma, anxiety and depression are very important. Instead I tend to focus on the psychological processes that interact with our physical processes to produce behaviours. Yet as I deal with my sexual trauma more and more, I've realised I can no longer ignore the impact our nervous system and the role it plays in our mental health. Therefore, in this clinical psychology podcast episode, we'll be focusing on window of tolerance, hyperarousal and hypoarousal during psychological distress. And how importantly we can get back within our window of tolerance to improve our mental health. If you enjoy learning about clinical psychology, biological psychology and the nervous system then you'll love today's episode.  In the psychology news section, you'll learn why we let those with the most power keep it, how blindsight colour perception opens up new questions about vision, and how mansplaining is not only for men, and a brief comment on Eleanor Maguire's unfortunate death.

In the current job market, you simply cannot escape job interviews because a lot of people believe that they are good indicators of future job performance.

On the 3rd December 2024, I had a two-hour-long Specific Learning Difficulties online assessment, so I could get a diagnosis of dyslexia, dyspraxia, dyscalculia or dysgraphia. I was assessed for all of them because I went through my university to get a dyslexia diagnosis and instead I had a Specific Learning Difficulties assessment that allowed me to be assessed for all of them. After the assessment (which was actually funny in its own right because I was able to be diagnosed quicker than she expected), I was diagnosed with dyslexia and dyspraxia. We'll cover these two conditions in the next two podcast episodes. Yet as an aspiring clinical psychologist, I found the assessment process fascinating and I really enjoyed how she adapted her process, her thoughts and what her approach as she got more information and test results so she could make a diagnosis. I learnt a lot during the assessment.

Yet whenever we see news about a terrorist attack, we always wonder why something would commit such a horrible attack but we wonder what makes a terrorist as well. Is a mental health condition?

In biological psychology, there is one of my favourite topics in psychology. It might not be related to clinical psychology, mental health or even forensic psychology, but I love it anyway. Psychophysics is a fascinating area of psychology that has always grabbed my attention and made me want to understand more about how a physical stimulus leads to a psychological experience.

Please subscribe to the channel so you don't miss any new episodes. As we saw in How Can Therapists and Parents Support Transgender Teenagers? There are high rates of suicide, self-harm and depression in transgender youth. One of the ways to decrease these awful mental health outcomes is medical transitioning, where transgender youth transition from the gender they were assigned at birth to their affirmed gender by developing the characterised physical features of their affirmed gender. An effective way of medical transitioning is by Hormone Replacement Therapy because masculine hormones can make fat move away from the hips and thighs and deepen the voice. Whereas feminine hormones can make body fat move towards the hips and thighs and lead to the development of breasts. However, Hormone Replacement Therapy focuses on physical benefits for transgender youth, and yet this is a psychology podcast and I am a firm believer in the biopsychosocial model. Therefore, in this biological psychology podcast episode, we're going to be investigating the psychological benefits of Hormone Replacement Therapy on transgender youth. This is going to be a lot of fun. If you enjoy learning about how hormones affect our behaviour, mental health and self-image, then you'll love today's episode. LISTEN NOW!

When it comes to clinical psychology, it is a very white, female, middle-class professional and I've spoken and written about the various reasons why this is the case and why this needs to change urgently. Diversity will always be critical within clinical psychology and related mental health professions, but a major reason why clinical psychology isn't that diverse is because of barriers to the profession. For different groups of people, even including white men, there are different barriers that can limit access to the clinical psychology profession, but this doesn't mean that all barriers are the same height. Therefore, in this psychology podcast episode, you'll learn what these barriers are, why they aren't always the same height and what we can do as profession to help flatten and hopefully outright eliminate some of these barriers. If you enjoy learning about careers in psychology, mental health professions and more then this is a great episode for you.

As we come to the end of Suicide Awareness Month and as I continue to struggle with my own mental health, including suicidal ideation at times. I wanted to do at least one podcast episode focusing on suicide in an effort to help support others. Therefore, about a week ago when I was suicidal and crying a lot, my best friend mentioned how suicide happens in clusters (at times) and if I killed myself then I would transfer all my pain to them. Now partly my best friend was saying that because one of my whole reasons to stay alive is so I don't hurt them. However, it got me thinking about how suicides can create ripples in social communities and in groups, and schools are a great example of the damaging impact of these ripples. As a result, in this clinical psychology episode, you'll learn why suicides need to be supported after suicide loss, how can schools support students after suicide loss and how we can create a more supportive school environment. If you enjoy learning about suicide, mental health and suicide postvention then this is a great episode for you. In the psychology news section, you'll learn how "Unconscious Exposure Therapy" might be a game changer, and what sort of reaction people have when seeing someone in pain.

One of my favourite topics in psychology actually comes from developmental psychology because I love learning about attachment and attachment styles. Since our attachment styles are critical to our mental health, the relationships we form and attachment impacts so many aspects of our lives.

That's why in this clinical psychology podcast episode, we're going to be looking at what is attachment based therapy, how does it work, when is it used and more. If you enjoy learning about developmental psychology, mental health and attachment then this will be a brilliant episode for you.

As aspiring and qualified psychologists and people interested in psychology, we read, listen and learn a lot of content about different mental health conditions. Yet as great as academic content is for helping us understanding a mental health condition, depression and anxiety, it is only lived experience that can possibly help us to truly understand what a condition is like for a client or service user. You can read as many academic papers on depression as you want but until you talk or listen to people who have or are currently experiencing depression then you will never be able to fully understand how depression impacts a person. Especially in their everyday life. Therefore, in this clinical psychology podcast episode, I'll be talking about my experience of a major depressive episode, which is still on-going as I finish off this blog post. You'll learn about how it's impacting me, what triggered my depression, the challenges depression gives me and more.
