In this episode we're joined by psychotherapist Katie Evans for a fascinating conversation about the deep psychological connection between horror and the human mind.We explore Katie's lifelong love of the genre and how her professional background has shaped the way she understands our attraction to the dark, the macabre, and the things that scare us.Why are we drawn to horror? What does our fascination with monsters, violence, and taboo ideas actually say about us?Together we dig into the psychology behind horror fandom - from repressed desires and difficult emotions to the safe space the genre creates for audiences to confront fear, grief, and the unknown.We also look at how different types of horror reflect different parts of the human psyche, and what they reveal when you scratch beneath the surface.Beyond the films themselves, we talk about the powerful sense of escapism and community that horror offers, and why so many people find comfort within the genre.Katie also shares details about her upcoming book, the incredible tour of talks she's currently delivering across the UK and Ireland, and what's next on her journey exploring the psychology of horror.If you've ever wondered why we love the things that frighten us, this is an episode you won't want to miss.If you enjoyed this - Check out my other content here - https://linktr.ee/FirstClassHorrorBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/class-horror-cast--4295531/support.

The Kouri Richins trial has built a case fact by fact, witness by witness. But the behavioral picture underneath it — how someone allegedly operates this way for years across an entire social world, what it does to the people who love them, and where it all starts — that takes a different kind of analysis.Tony Brueski brings psychotherapist Shavaun Scott and retired FBI Behavioral Analysis Chief Robin Dreeke into three complete panel conversations examining the full psychological scope of this case.The first conversation tackles the alleged exploitation the trial has documented in granular detail — every person prosecutors say was used and what they lost, and the psychological mechanics that allegedly made it invisible until it was too late. The second examines the Richins family's experience — the instinct they carried, the years of fighting to be believed, and the specific psychological weight of grief that confirms what you always feared was true. The third goes to the root: Kouri's own history, what a chaotic upbringing does to someone's decision-making decades down the road, and what five children are now inheriting from all of it.This is the psychological portrait the case demands — and the conversation most coverage is still not having.Kouri Richins has pleaded not guilty and is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Iran has a new Supreme Leader, the hard-line cleric, Mojtaba Khamenei, who has succeeded his father who was killed on the first day of the US-Israeli war against Iran. This morning, Iran's woman's football team are facing building pressure as they prepare to leave Australia's Gold Coast after being eliminated from the Asian Cup on Sunday. Fears for their safety has been growing since they failed to sing the national anthem ahead of their first match against South Korea last week. The decision prompted fierce criticism within Iran and in subsequent matches the players sung, or at least mouthed, the anthem's words. Katy Watson, the BBC's Sydney correspondent, is on the Gold Coast where the tournament is being held and talks to Nuala McGovern about what's been happening. There has been a surge of understanding about the menopause and we are better informed on many aspects. However three quarters of women surveyed for a YouGov poll do not know that a new mental illness can be triggered by the hormonal changes associated with the menopause. Those figures come from a YouGov poll commissioned by the Royal College of Psychiatrists. The College wants to raise awareness about mental health and menopause and the implications for clinical practice. To tell us more about why this was needed now, Nuala is joined by Dr Lade Smith, President of the Royal College of Psychiatrists. Do you have a "hassler" in your life? If so, they could be making you age faster. That's according to new research funded by the US National Institute of Aging. A third of all respondents in the study said they had at least one hassler in their life - that is someone who is creating problems and making your life harder. The study also shows that the impact on your health is worse if they are a family member. Psychotherapist and writer Lucy Cavendish explains how to deal with that difficult person in your life.The singer/songwriter Katherine Priddy played her first gig at the O2 and has since performed at the BBC Proms, and at festivals such as Glastonbury, Green Man and Cambridge Folk, where she was awarded the Christian Raphael Prize for best emerging artist. Katherine tells Nuala about her newly released third album, These Frightening Machines, and performs her track Madeline. Why do some women who commit crimes come to be seen as a definition of evil? The Moors murderer Myra Hindley became an enduring symbol of female wickedness but she is not the only one. Professor Joanna Bourke has written a new book, Five Evil Women. It looks at the fascination with these figures and finds it often reveals as much about society as it does about the crimes themselves. Joanna tells Nuala why she chose these five women and they're also joined by BBC Radio 4 New Generation Thinker, criminologist Professor Stephanie Brown.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Andrea Kidd

Today, we are bringing you a live episode recorded in Sydney that celebrates the strength, resilience and brilliance of women everywhere. This conversation is our tribute to that journey and a vital call to action to finally close the gender pain gap. Why are women consistently told that pain is "part and parcel" of the female experience? Following our chat with Kate Walsh, her and Claire are joined on the sofa for a panel discussion with four leading experts; PROFESSOR CAROLINE GARGETT: A world-leading reproductive and stem cell science researcher and Group Head of Endometrial Stem Cell Biology Laboratory with 28 years research experience in gynaecological research with a focus on endometriosis and developing a cell based therapy for Pelvic Organ Prolapse. THEA BAKER: Thea has treated women with complex trauma and co-morbid pain conditions as a Psychotherapist in Australia for over 10 years. She also has her own lived experience of chronic pain herself from endometriosis and osteoarthritis A/ PROFESSOR SUSAN EVANS: A specialist, researcher, educator, innovator, advocate and CEO in pelvic pain for over 20 years. As a gynaecologist, laparoscopic surgeon and pain physician, A/Prof Susan Evans Co-founded the Pelvic Pain Foundation of Australia, co-developed the Periods, Pain and Endometriosis Schools Program, and is now working with Alyra Biotech developing innovative new treatments for pelvic pain. PROFESSOR MARIA FIATARONE SINGH: A geriatrician whose research, clinical, and teaching career has focused on the integration of medicine, exercise physiology, and nutrition as a means to improve health status and quality of life across the lifespan. (Physical & Metabolic Longevity) We dive deep into why women’s symptoms are still frequently dismissed as psychological, the revolutionary potential of menstrual fluid in diagnostics and why "looking normal" on a scan doesn't mean the pain isn't real. From the first period to the complexities of ageing, our experts provide a roadmap for women to reclaim their health and advocate for their own bodies. We explore the "Pain Scale Paradox", revealing why the traditional 1-10 measurement fails those with chronic conditions, while unpacking the biological "amplifier" that predisposes women to persistent pain. It’s time to strip away the historical stigma of "hysteria" and replace it with a medical system that finally validates the female experience!

This week I'm reading from Shannon Cain's book 'Journey of an Eternal Soul: My Journey Through Past Lives to Spiritual Awakening'  Transcend to a higher plane through this gripping memoir of spiritual discovery. Join me as I recount my profound past life regression journey that forever changed my perspective. Through enthralling sessions with the gifted La Donna Permenter, I accessed secrets from distant times and planets. I lived as a fierce warrior, devoted husband, accused witch, and extraterrestrial from an advanced civilization, recalling intricate details about these vivid past lives. My soul traveled through mystical realms where I encountered spirit guides and my council on the other side. They shed light on karmic patterns and offered guidance to align me with my true path. This experience awakened dormant gifts and abilities within me. The revelations from my soul's journey have already created a monumental spiritual awakening, improving all aspects of my life. But this is only the beginning. The adventure continues as I seek answers to humanity's biggest mysteries. What wisdom lies in the Akashic records? Where do our loved ones go when they pass? What is the meaning of life? Unlock these secrets and more as you join me on this captivating voyage of self-discovery! Bio My name is Shannon Cain, and I'm proof that the universe has a sense of humor. Born into the rolling hills of Kentucky where survival often mattered more than spirituality, I spent decades believing I was broken, weird, and fundamentally flawed. What I didn't understand was that the very experiences that felt like curses were actually preparing me for the greatest adventure of my life. I'm not a professional writer—I barely made it through high school and have always struggled with traditional learning. I'm not a certified therapist or ordained minister. I don't have letters after my name or degrees on my wall. What I do have is a direct line to experiences that transformed not just my understanding of life and death, but my entire relationship with reality itself. After twenty years of marriage to my soulmate and six children who continue to teach me what unconditional love looks like, I thought I had life figured out. I was successful in business, comfortable in my routines, and thoroughly convinced that the strange experiences of my childhood were just imagination running wild. Then the universe decided it was time for me to remember who I really was. This book chronicles that remembering—the past-life regressions that showed me I had lived before and would live again, the communications with deceased relatives that proved love transcends death, the journeys to other dimensions that revealed the magnificent architecture of consciousness itself. I'm sharing this story not because I want attention or credibility, but because I was given a mission: help others understand that the strange experiences they're having aren't signs of mental illness but evidence of awakening. The vivid dreams, the sense of knowing things you've never learned, the feeling that this world isn't quite real—trust those experiences. They're pointing you toward the truth of who you really are. We live in an incredible time when more humans are remembering their spiritual nature than ever before in recorded history. If this book finds its way to you, it's probably no accident. Something in your soul recognizes these truths, even if your logical mind wants to dismiss them. Listen to that recognition. Follow it. Because on the other side of that leap of faith lies a reality more beautiful and interconnected than you ever dared imagine. The whispers are calling you home. All you have to do is listen. Shannon Cain currently lives in Jacksonville, Florida, with his wife and children, where he continues to explore the endless frontier of consciousness while somehow managing to pay the bills and remember to take out the trash. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FQJZN5XP   La Donna Permenter I have been driven my entire life with the desire to help people, by working in the medical field I have been able to fulfill that dream. I have spent 35 years in the medical field starting in the EMS services, then 25 (+) years in Pulmonary and Infectious Disease working with a wonderful group of doctors at the forefront of HIV-AIDS in the late 80's.  I also spent several years as a clinical manager for a large pain management practice. In 2009, I started my own company in the outpatient mental health field.  I built the practice into a group of 12 Psychotherapists,  including Licensed Mental Health Counselors, Licensed Clinical Social Workers and Psychologists. I enjoyed my many years in medicine, and I see now how all of this was also a part of my journey, by experiencing the interactions with all of the beautiful people that were my patients over the years. It was during this time that I realized there had to be another way to expand on the care to assist people further and in a much deeper way.  In medicine we focus on healing the body, but we must not forget to integrate the healing of the body, mind and the Soul. With this desire to expanded and connect at a deeper level, I sold the mental health practice and dedicated myself full time to what I now know is my true calling in life, completely. During many years of research and studying to expand my knowledge on this level of deeper care, I discovered Dolores Cannon's QHHT -Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique /PLR regression therapy. It was Dolores Cannon that developed the practice of QHHT; she developed this procedure over her 50 years of success, helping others awaken to their life purpose. I realized that this is my calling, and I promptly became a certified dedicated provider. I have spent hundreds of hours of study and practical hands on application throughout the studies of QHHT -Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique. https://yoursoulrecovery.com/ https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/https://www.patreon.com/ourparanormalafterlifeMy book 'Verified Near Death Experiences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this powerful episode of Tendrils of Grief, I sit down with psychotherapist and author Sally Dukes for a deeply personal and layered conversation about grief, identity, attachment, and the stories that shape our lives. During our discussion, I share my own journey with abandonment wounds and the loss of my husband — how those early attachment patterns resurfaced in grief, and how loss forces us to confront the narratives we've carried for years. Sally brings her expertise in transpersonal psychology and narrative healing to explore how the stories we tell ourselves can either keep us stuck in victimhood or help us step into growth. We also dive into Sally's near-death experience at age three during open-heart surgery — a profound encounter with a violet light of love that forever shaped her understanding of death and what may lie beyond it. Together, we explore anxious attachment, spiritual connection, manifestation, and whether the bonds we share with loved ones truly end when they die. This episode is an honest conversation about grief not as something to "get over," but as something that reveals who we are beneath the surface. It's about rewriting the story — not denying the pain — and discovering that love may continue in ways we don't fully understand. If you've ever questioned your patterns, wrestled with abandonment, or wondered whether your loved ones are still somehow near, this episode will meet you with compassion and depth.

In this episode, I sit down with the somatic psychotherapist, writer, and teacher Ailey Jolie to explore the evolving intersection of trauma, embodiment, and technology.Ailey shares her journey from eating disorder recovery to psychedelic-assisted research to writing, and her commitment to bringing body-based wisdom into mainstream psychology. She reflects on leaving modeling and medicine after listening to an unmistakable inner “no,” watching her mother make a life-defining decision guided by intuition, and how those early experiences shaped her trust in the body's voice.Ailey's credentials are impeccable. She holds a Master of Counseling Psychology, a Master of Arts in Depth Psychology with an Emphasis in Somatic Studies, and is a graduate of Harvard Medical School's Global Mental Health: Trauma Recovery Masters certificate program. She's a certified Focusing Oriented Therapist (FOT), Compassionate Inquiry Practitioner (CI), Certified Internal Family Systems Therapist (C-IFS), and Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP). Furthermore, she has trained to deliver MDMA-assisted psychotherapy for PTSD (MAPS USA) and Ketamine-assisted psychotherapy in a research setting. She brings this wide range of experience to her Substack newsletter Words From This Body.In exploring AI as a kind of “spiritual technologist,” Ailey speaks candidly about her shifting relationship with screens, nervous system regulation, and the need to titrate between in-person depth and digital reach. Together, we discuss dorsal vagal “rest,” the somatic cost of not being believed, why trauma lives differently in female bodies, and the generational work of translating mind-body science — especially through a feminist lens — into something more accessible, embodied, and alive.LinksIn this Body, Ailey's podcast that explores the hidden impact of the unconscious In Body Method, Ailey's 14-week guided journey Words From This Body, Ailey's Substack newsletter

In today's episode, Trisha and I are answering two questions that I know so many of you will quietly relate to. If you've ever felt stuck in that horrible loop of not seeing progress… getting tired… reaching for coffee or chocolate… and then slowly falling off track — this one is for you. We talk about what's actually happening in those moments. Why it feels so hard to stay steady when results are slow. And how to rebuild momentum without turning on yourself or throwing everything out the window. Then we move into the teenage years. If you're working full-time, juggling drop-offs and pick-ups, watching the money fly out every month, and wondering how to stay present in it all — we talk about that too. How to catch yourself when you're reacting. How to steady the tone at home. And how to bring more calm and connection into your parenting, even when life feels relentless. As always, Trisha McHale brings her grounded, compassionate psychotherapist lens — helping unpack what's happening beneath the behaviours, and how to shift from reacting to responding. If you've ever felt stuck in a loop, stretched too thin, or unsure how to move into the next phase of life with intention — this episode is for you. Click play and let's dive in.

Send a textFear is powerful. It can override logic, silence intuition, and convince us to stay small.But what if fear isn't your intuition at all?In this episode of the Starter Girlz Podcast, Jennifer Loehding sits down with spiritual psychotherapist, clinical mental health counselor, hypnotherapist, shamanic practitioner, and actor Maria Micha for a grounded conversation about subconscious blocks, ancestral patterns, and reclaiming personal power.From growing up in Athens, Greece, to studying in the UK and later expanding her work in Singapore and Los Angeles, Maria shares how her journey led her to blend psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, neuroscience, and spiritual practice to help individuals transform from the inside out.Together, Jennifer and Maria explore how education can disconnect us from our inner voice, how fear often masquerades as intuition, and why life's biggest challenges can become catalysts for growth.This episode isn't about quick fixes.It's about awareness, curiosity, and remembering that there is always more available to you.⭐ What You'll Hear in This Episode✅ Why fear can override intuition — and how to tell the difference✅ How education trains us to doubt our inner voice✅ Training intuition through low-stakes decisions✅ The subconscious mind and how beliefs form neural pathways✅ How challenges catalyze growth✅ Breaking victim mentality and reclaiming personal power✅ The impact of ancestral patterns on money, identity, and behavior✅ The connection between thoughts, somatization, and physical health✅ Maria's three-part definition of success✅ How psychotherapy informs her work as an actor

Psychotherapist and dog professional Ann Howie built her professional life around doing animal-assisted therapy with her own dogs. Then for years, none of her dogs wanted to do that work. She had to adjust her entire vision around what was actually true. We explore the difference between listening to yourself and actually following through—two separate permissions. Ann shares her wisdom about shifting loads rather than just carrying them, about mental nutrition mattering as much as physical nutrition, and about the delicate balance she calls "the selfishness versus self-care conundrum." https://colleenpelar.com/156

When you're in a high-conflict divorce, the behaviors often feel indistinguishable. Gaslighting. Manipulation. Control. Chaos. Emotional whiplash. It's why so many people fixate on one question: Is my spouse a narcissist? In this episode, I'm joined by licensed psychotherapist and narcissistic abuse expert Chelsey Brooke Cole to explore a deeper truth—when the impact on you feels the same, does the label actually matter? We unpack what narcissistic abuse truly is, how it overlaps with other forms of emotional and psychological abuse, and why abusers and narcissists often behave in nearly identical ways during divorce. Especially when they're losing control. Especially when the legal process becomes another tool for domination, punishment, and destabilization. This conversation is not about diagnosing your ex. It's about understanding patterns so you can stop internalizing blame, stop doubting your reality, and stop negotiating from fear. We talk about the internal experience of these dynamics—the fog, the shame, the fragmentation, the nervous system overload—and how those symptoms affect your ability to think clearly, make decisions, and advocate for yourself and your children. Most importantly, we focus on what actually helps. How to protect yourself emotionally and strategically during a high-conflict divorce. How to anticipate predictable escalations. How to step out of reactivity and into steadiness. And how to begin rebuilding your sense of identity, self-worth, and agency after prolonged psychological control. If you're divorcing someone who feels impossible, unpredictable, or emotionally dangerous, this episode offers clarity, validation, and a path forward rooted in reality—not labels. Chelsey Brooke Cole is a licensed psychotherapist, certified partner trauma therapist, bestselling author of If Only I'd Known!, and a nationally recognized expert in narcissistic abuse and complex trauma. She has been featured in USA Today, Psychology Today, HuffPost, WKRN News 2, and FOX 26 Houston, and supports thousands of survivors through her clinical work, education, and trauma-informed programs. This episode is for anyone navigating a high-conflict divorce who needs to understand what's happening, why it's so destabilizing, and how to move forward without losing themselves in the process.

As federal agents carry out the massive "Operation Metro Surge" in Minnesota, tensions continue between the Department of Homeland Security and local leaders over the scale and tactics of immigration enforcement. In New York, Governor Kathy Hochul is pushing the ‘Local Cops, Local Crimes' Act to rework how local law enforcement cooperates with federal immigration authorities, a move critics argue compromises public safety. Republican Representative for New York's 11th District, Nicole Malliotakis, joins the Rundown to discuss these enforcement shifts as well as the current legal battle over her own district. As political tensions continue to rise, some experts warn the constant outrage and fixation may be taking a real toll on Americans' mental health. With divisions deepening over immigration enforcement, protests, and heated rhetoric from both sides, the question becomes whether the country can step back from the brink of permanent political anxiety. Psychotherapist and author of the upcoming book Therapy Nation, Jonathan Alpert, joins the Rundown to explain why he says politics is occupying too much space in our lives—and how to begin letting it go.

Embedding Diversity and Equity in Practice - When Training Ends but Hours Remain In Episode 364 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics: Firstly, in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', we explore the question ‘Will AI Replace Counsellors and Psychotherapists?', examining how AI is currently used in mental health care and what this might mean for the future of the profession. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Mamood Ahmad about his newly published book A New Introduction to Counselling and Psychotherapy, which calls for embedding diversity, equity, and context at the heart of practice. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken explore what happens when your counselling course ends but your placement hours are incomplete – offering guidance on how to stay motivated and complete the journey. Will AI Replace Counsellors and Psychotherapists? [starts at 03:33 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore the question ‘Will AI Replace Counsellors and Psychotherapists?', addressing a growing concern about whether artificial intelligence could one day replace human therapists. Key points discussed include: AI is already being used to support mental health in areas such as assessment, triage, and CBT-based coaching, but not as a replacement for human connection. The therapeutic relationship - empathy, intuition, and shared presence - remains central and cannot be replicated by machines. AI can be used ethically by counsellors to streamline tasks, improve assessments, and support practice without replacing core therapeutic roles. The rise of AI highlights the importance of counsellors developing digital literacy and understanding the ethical use of technology. Future therapists will benefit from embracing AI as a tool rather than fearing it as a threat. As job displacement due to AI increases in other sectors, therapists may become key support figures for those affected by these societal shifts. Embedding Diversity and Equity in Practice [starts at 33:12 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Mamood Ahmad about his latest book, A New Introduction to Counselling and Psychotherapy and the need for systemic change in training and practice to include equity, context, and diversity as core elements. Key points from this conversation include: Traditional counselling models often overlook the contextual, cultural, and systemic influences on mental health. Mamood proposes a new baseline model where diversity, embodiment, and lived experience are embedded - not treated as optional extras. This approach enriches practice for all, recognising that every client (and therapist) brings their own cultural, social, and personal history into the room. Therapists must reflect on their own normativity and differences to meet clients with authenticity and depth. The book acts as a manifesto for change, advocating for a curriculum that prepares therapists for real-world complexity and inclusivity. It is relevant to both trainees and qualified practitioners committed to ethical and effective practice. When Training Ends but Hours Remain [starts at 59:05 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken discuss the common situation where a counselling course finishes, but a student still has placement hours outstanding. Key points include: It is common - and perfectly acceptable - for trainees to need extra time post-course to complete their client hours. Knowing the deadline and formal policy of your training provider is essential; always get this information in writing. Motivation can drop sharply after training ends, so it's important to build support networks through placements, peer groups, supervisors, or online forums. Visual motivators (like hour tokens in a jar) can help sustain momentum during this post-course phase. Stay engaged with CPD and peer connection to keep your confidence and learning alive. Remember: this is just one part of your journey, and with steady effort, the finish line is within reach.

Two families destroyed by violence. Two different kinds of institutional failure. On True Crime Today, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott — author of The Minds of Mass Killers — provides expert analysis of the psychology behind family annihilation and the systemic failures of America's addiction treatment industry.The Paul Caneiro trial in Monmouth County, New Jersey, has revealed staggering violence. Prosecutors allege Paul murdered his brother Keith, sister-in-law Jennifer, and their children Jesse and Sophia after Keith discovered Paul had stolen $78,000. Eight-year-old Sophia was stabbed 17 times, including a wound to her eye, and was allegedly still alive when the fire started. Shavaun explains what drives family annihilators to kill everyone rather than face accountability, what overkill violence reveals about psychological state, and how to read courtroom emotion.The Nick Reiner case exposed the failures of a $42 billion addiction treatment industry. The Reiner family had every resource available — access, money, the best facilities — and Rob and Michele Reiner are still dead. Shavaun examines why the 28-day model keeps failing, who profits from relapse, why insurance companies control treatment length over clinical judgment, and why fifty years of dismal outcomes haven't triggered meaningful reform.

Tonight on Hidden Killers Live, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins us for an extended examination of two cases that expose how systems fail families in catastrophic ways. From the psychology of family annihilation to the financial incentives keeping addiction treatment broken — this is essential expert analysis you won't find anywhere else.In the Paul Caneiro trial, prosecutors allege Paul murdered his brother Keith, sister-in-law Jennifer, and their two children at their Colts Neck mansion after Keith discovered Paul had been stealing from him. Eight-year-old Sophia was stabbed 17 times and allegedly still alive when the fire started. Shavaun breaks down what drives someone to annihilate everyone they love rather than face exposure, what extreme overkill reveals about psychological state, and how to read Paul's courtroom behavior — including his tears during testimony about the children.The Nick Reiner tragedy exposed America's $42 billion addiction treatment industry. The Reiner family had every resource available and Rob and Michele Reiner are still dead. Shavaun follows the money through relapse-profitable business models, insurance company control over clinical decisions, and the accountability vacuum that lets facilities fail without consequence. We identify who blocks reform and ask whether meaningful change is even possible.

The Paul Caneiro trial has exposed one of New Jersey's most disturbing alleged family annihilations. Prosecutors say Paul murdered his brother Keith, sister-in-law Jennifer, and their two children — 11-year-old Jesse and 8-year-old Sophia — at their Colts Neck mansion in November 2018, then set the house on fire. The alleged trigger? Keith had just discovered Paul stole $78,000 from a trust account. Hours later, his entire family was dead.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins Hidden Killers to analyze the psychology driving family annihilation. Why does financial exposure sometimes trigger mass murder? What does the overkill violence — Sophia was stabbed 17 times including a wound to her eye and was allegedly still alive when the fire started — tell us about the perpetrator's psychological state? And how do family annihilators rationalize killing children they supposedly loved?We break down the prosecution's timeline, including surveillance footage of Paul disconnecting his cameras at 1:28 a.m., and examine testimony about his behavior after allegedly setting his own house on fire with his wife and daughters inside. Witnesses described Paul and his family sitting calmly in a Porsche outside the burning home. If someone had just survived what they believed was an attack, what would we expect to see emotionally? Shavaun explains what genuine trauma looks like versus performance — and what Paul's courtroom tears might actually mean.#PaulCaneiro #ColtsNeckMassacre #FamilyAnnihilation #KeithCaneiro #SophiaCaneiro #JesseCaneiro #ShavaunScott #TrueCrimeAnalysis #KillerPsychology #HiddenKillersJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Paul Caneiro allegedly murdered his brother Keith, sister-in-law Jennifer, and their two children Jesse and Sophia at their Colts Neck, New Jersey home in November 2018 — then set fires at both properties to cover his tracks. The prosecution says it all started when Keith discovered Paul had been stealing from him. Within hours, Keith's entire family was dead. Eight-year-old Sophia was stabbed 17 times, including a wound to her left eye, and prosecutors allege she was still alive when the fire was set.Tonight on Hidden Killers Live, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott breaks down the psychology of family annihilation in real time. What drives someone to kill the people closest to them rather than face exposure? Why do these killers often include children in the violence? And what does the level of overkill reveal about their psychological state at the moment of the crime?We're examining the evidence presented at trial — the surveillance footage of Paul disconnecting his security cameras at 1:28 a.m., the doctored bank statements, and the witness testimony describing Paul sitting calmly in his Porsche outside his own burning home. Shavaun addresses Paul's courtroom behavior, including wiping his eyes during testimony about the children, and explains how experts distinguish genuine grief from performance. Join us live as we unpack one of New Jersey's most disturbing alleged family massacres with expert psychological analysis.#PaulCaneiro #ColtsNeckMurders #FamilyAnnihilator #KeithCaneiro #JenniferCaneiro #ShavaunScott #TrueCrimeLive #MassKillerPsychology #ChildMurder #HiddenKillersLiveJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Nick Reiner allegedly murdered his parents — director Rob Reiner and his wife Michele. The tragedy has forced a national conversation about something America has avoided for decades: the addiction treatment system doesn't work. Relapse rates between 40-60% within a month. Over 90% for opioids in the first year. A $42 billion industry that keeps billing whether treatment succeeds or not. Tonight on Hidden Killers Live, we're asking the hard question — is the system broken, or is this just what addiction looks like?Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott joins us to break down the clinical reality behind the headlines. The 28-day treatment model wasn't designed by doctors — it was designed by insurance companies in the 1970s. The brain doesn't heal from addiction in 28 days. So why is that still the standard? Shavaun examines what evidence-based treatment actually requires, why most facilities can't provide it, and whether we're expecting too much from a population that often doesn't want to recover.We're digging into the co-occurring disorder crisis — the trauma, depression, and mental illness that almost always accompanies addiction but rarely gets treated. The underpaid, undertrained workforce doing the frontline work. And the uncomfortable truth about patients who learn to game the system. Join us live as we examine whether the treatment industry is failing its patients or facing an impossible task.#NickReiner #RobReiner #AddictionTreatment #RehabFailure #ShavaunScott #MentalHealthCrisis #TreatmentIndustry #SubstanceAbuse #OpioidCrisis #HiddenKillersLiveJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
