The patients in the therapy sessions in the new film GROUP: The Schopenhauer Effect are actors, but it's not a scripted film. The actors were given characters and circumstances and then they improvised dialogue with each other and with the group leader, who is also acting. Kind of. Dr. Elliott Zeisel is one of the most important figures in group therapy in America since the 1970s. With all that knowledge and experience powering him along, he also improvised his dialogue, based on what he was being said. The result is a remarkably honest and moving portrayal of group therapy. We talk with Dr. Zeisel about the film and about how group therapy works, what to expect, who's a good candidate for it, and which myths need to be dispelled.

The Psychology of Self-Injury: Exploring Self-Harm & Mental Health
A lot of therapies address the context in which nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) and self-harm may occur, but only a few treatments have been designed to address NSSI specifically. In this episode, we dive into one of these treatments: Emotion Regulation Group Therapy (ERGT). Drs. Kim Gratz and Matthew Tull from the University of Toledo in Ohio walk us through in significant detail each of the 90-minute 14 sessions of ERGT. You can purchase their book "Acceptance-based emotion regulation therapy: A clinician's guide to treating emotion dysregulation and self-destructive behaviors using an evidence-based therapy drawn from ACT and DBT" on Amazon here or at New Harbinger Publications here. Connect with Dr. Gratz on LinkedIn here and Dr. Tull here. Below are links to their research on ERGT referenced in this episode: Gratz, K. L., & Gunderson, J. G. (2006).

“Maddi” has an amazing guy, but noticed when she was out to dinner with him that something felt off…
In this episode of More Faith More Life, Pastor Steve Gray confronts what he calls “the Therapy Gospel”. It's a version of Christianity that focuses on coping instead of transformation. He challenges the modern church's self-centered starting point and calls believers back to the message Jesus actually preached: “Repent, for the Kingdom of God is at hand.”Instead of beginning with guilt and anxiety, Steve urges a shift toward forward-moving Kingdom living, calling listeners to die to self, enter Christ's life, and walk in real transformation. This is not about feeling better. It's about becoming new.If you've ever felt stuck in church but hungry for revival, this episode will reframe how you see repentance, salvation, and the true Gospel.Key Takeaways:Therapy vs. Transformation: Pastor Steve Gray critiques the modern "therapy gospel," urging a return to the transformative power found in the teachings of Jesus, which call for a renewal and departure from merely coping with personal issues.The Kingdom of God: Emphasis on the need to understand repentance in light of the Kingdom of God being at hand—a calling towards living a life shaped by divine purpose rather than personal history or self-centered salvation.Critique of Religious Systems: Analysis of how contemporary religious systems often fail believers, leaving them feeling lost within a structure that should foster growth and enlightenment.Historical Perspective: References to Martin Luther's Reformation highlight how historical attempts to reconcile faith with personal guilt and anxiety have evolved, impacting present-day religious practices and beliefs.Redefining Conversion: A call to rethink the sinner's prayer and conversion experiences to ensure they align with biblical notions of losing oneself to gain life abundantly in Christ, invoking personal sacrifice and genuine transformation.

We break down the real survival guide to adulthood by talkin acting, imposter syndrome, and the industry lessons we wish we'd learned sooner, from child stardom to navigating authenticity in a capitalist media machine. We get honest about personal growth, sobriety, mental health, self-perception, and how preparation, feedback, and balance shape both our personal life and professional life. We unpack the hype and tension around media coverage, gambling culture, and big public events, then lighten things up by revealing our favorite animals and the animal traits that reflect how we see ourselves, how we want to be seen, and how we actually show up. We close with community engagement, listener participation, and a reminder that planning, intuition, and slowing down matter just as much as ambition when you're trying to grow without losing yourself.
