Clinical psychologist Dr. Dana Harron joins me to discuss how couples can approach difficult conversations about eating disorders with honesty, care, and mutual respect. Together we explore what makes these conversations emotionally charged, how to prepare for them, and how partners can support each other without taking on the role of therapist or monitor. Dr. Harron offers practical guidance from her book Loving Someone With an Eating Disorder and her work at Monarch Wellness & Psychotherapy. You'll learn what helps these conversations go more smoothly, how to create safety before and after hard talks, and when to bring in a therapist who understands both eating disorders and couples dynamics. Content Caution This episode discusses eating disorders, disordered eating behaviors, and relationship stress that can arise during recovery. Some listeners may find certain details activating. Please take care of yourself while listening, and pause or skip ahead as needed. About Our Guest Dana Harron, PsyD is a clinical psychologist and founder of Monarch Wellness & Psychotherapy in Washington, D.C. She specializes in trauma, parenting, and eating disorders. She is the author of Loving Someone With an Eating Disorder: Supporting, Nurturing, and Connecting With Your Partner and is currently writing Parenting Beyond Trauma. You can find her work at monarchwellness.com and on Instagram at @monarchwellnesspsychotherapy. What You'll Learn How to prepare before opening up about your eating disorder to a partner Why I-statements and emotional honesty matter more than having all the answers The best times and places for difficult conversations about food and body image What to say when your partner asks questions you cannot answer yet How to plan a follow-up discussion and build routine check-ins Why post-conversation decompression helps the nervous system reset What couples therapy can look like when one partner struggles with an eating disorder How to balance support and autonomy without creating a power differential Conversation Highlights Dr. Harron shares how her book was inspired by the lack of resources for partners of adults with eating disorders. Tips for partners on when to speak, when to listen, and how to avoid meal-time conversations about food behaviors. The importance of humor, co-regulation, and small moments of levity in recovery. How systemic patterns in relationships can reinforce eating disorder behaviors. Why “honesty” in recovery is about emotional congruence, not just full disclosure. Key Takeaways for Couples Prime the moment: Let your partner know a sensitive topic is coming and ask for what you need—listening, reassurance, or space. Avoid high-stress times: Skip conversations around meals or when one partner is emotionally depleted. Plan ongoing conversations: Short, consistent check-ins build predictability and reduce tension. Use shared recovery language: I-statements and gentle curiosity create safety and understanding. Involve professionals: A therapist or dietitian trained in eating disorders can guide communication and prevent relational burnout.

The difficulty of Jacques Lacan's thought is notorious. The Cambridge Introduction to Jacques Lacan cuts through this difficulty to provide a clear, jargon-free approach to understanding it. The book describes Lacan's life, the context from which he emerged, and the reception of his theory. Readers will come away with an understanding of concepts such as jouissance, the objet a, and the big Other. The book frames Lacan's thought in the history of philosophy and explains it through jokes, films, and popular culture. In this light, Lacan becomes a thinker of philosophical importance in his own right, on a par with Jean-Paul Sartre and Simone de Beauvoir. Lacan's great contribution is the introduction of the unconscious into subjectivity, which results in a challenge to both the psychoanalytic establishment and to philosophers. The Cambridge Introduction to Jacques Lacan provides readers with a way of understanding the nature of Lacan's contribution. Todd McGowan teaches theory and film at the University of Vermont. He is the author of Embracing Alienation, The Racist Fantasy, Emancipation After Hegel, Capitalism and Desire, and Only a Joke Can Save Us, among other books.

Presented by Stacy Ogbeide, PsyD, ABPP; UT Health San AntonioSTFM Conference on Practice & Quality Improvement 2025 Middle Session | Tuesday, September 9, 2025There has been exponential growth of behavioral health integration (BHI) in primary care within the United States over the past decade. While there has been growth and the development of recommendations for BHI in primary care, this approach to patient care is not yet the standard of care within primary care delivery models, as many practices either do not have behavioral health clinicians within their practice or have sub-optimal behavioral health clinician staffing ratios. The purpose of this presentation is to review the current research related to BHI in primary care and its impact on patient care, the primary care team, and primary care behavioral health workforce development. Additionally, participants will be presented with interventions to improve BHI in primary care within their clinics, teams, and training programs, as well as current and future interventions to address workforce shortages. Lastly, guidance will be provided for health care organizations and academic intuitions on how to provide ongoing support for community-based clinical training initiatives.Learning ObjectivesUpon completion of this session, participants should be able to:Report on current research trends related to behavioral health integration in primary care.Describe the current state of primary care and behavioral health workforce shortages in the United States impacting ongoing behavioral health integration efforts.Explain at least one (1) evidence-informed approach to improve clinical training and workforce shortages.Identify at least one (1), macrosystem approach to support clinical training in primary care within the community.Copyright © Society of Teachers of Family Medicine, 2025Stacy Ogbeide, PsyD, ABPPBy training, Dr Ogbeide is a board-certified clinical health psychologist.

Tracy talks with pyschologist Dr. Peter Salerno about the intersection of infidelity and personality disorders. A lot of conventional therapy assumes that clients lack insight into their behavior and that antisocial behavior is the result of childhood trauma. Dr. Salerno argues that this approach ignores the behavioral science of personality disorders. Manipulation, deception, and a pathological lack of remorse are hallmarks of narcissism and sociopathy and these abusive acts are intentional. And to a certain extent, even hard-wired.  How does this science challenge the victim-blaming narratives around infidelity? Could the serial cheater, family abandoner, or deadbeat parent have a personality disorder? Do these manipulative characters keep you confused and hopeful on purpose?  *** Peter Salerno, PsyD,  is a retired licensed psychotherapist, trauma-informed educator, and the author of Nature and Nurture of Narcissism; and Traumatic Cognitive Dissonance: Healing from an Abusive Relationship with a Disordered Personality. Dr. Salerno has received specialized training in trauma treatment and personality disorders and was trained to administer and score the Hare Psychopathy Checklist-Revised (PCL-R), the international standard for the clinical and forensic assessment of psychopathy. He has treated mental health conditions in a variety of clinical settings. His first book, Fit For Off Duty, has been required reading for law enforcement officers at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia. Dr. Salerno has consulted internationally for educational purposes with individuals who have experienced traumatic cognitive dissonance resulting from pathological relationship abuse. He is also a featured expert in the Hulu/Disney+ docuseries Ted Bundy: Dialogue with the Devil, where he contributed his expertise on psychopathy and personality pathology.

Is psychedelic assisted therapy is BETTER than traditional talk therapy? You'll hear how they're different, how psychedelics may help not just the combat veteran or trauma survivor, but the functional griever (goes to work every day, acts like everything is fine, but having panic attacks out of nowhere). You'll also hear about my own experience with psychedelics and different types of medicines for different types of grief. Michael Sapiro, PsyD, is an ordained Buddhist monk, poet & clinical psychedelic psychotherapist. In addition to working extensively with first responders, he is a psychological consultant for SWAT command & a member of a crisis negotiation team.

Dr. Beth Lorance joins Dr. Sandie Morgan as they discover how a high school coach gave one of his players expensive gifts, things her mother had refused to buy, with the mom posting online asking what to do, not realizing she was witnessing grooming behavior that creates the same vulnerabilities traffickers exploit in trusted spaces throughout our communities. Dr. Beth Lorance Dr. Beth Lorance is an adjunct professor at Vanguard University, where she teaches Family Violence and has also taught Introduction to Psychology and Psychology of the Family. She earned her PsyD in Clinical Psychology and previously served as the director of Vanguard's counseling center. In addition to her academic background, Beth is a licensed minister with the Assemblies of God, which allows her to bring both psychological expertise and theological insight into conversations about abuse, trauma, and healing. Her passion is deeply personal, rooted in her own family history of child sexual abuse, and she is committed to equipping others to use their voices to prevent abuse, protect the vulnerable, and walk alongside survivors. Beth also works to bring awareness into the church, encouraging faith communities to reflect Jesus' response to victims and to take seriously the call to protect those who are most vulnerable. Key Points Family violence creates deep vulnerabilities by teaching children harmful lessons that love is transactional, they're not enough, and there's something wrong with them that they can't overcome - wounds that become embedded in their brain chemistry when trauma happens at a young age. Traffickers don't create vulnerabilities but rather exploit existing wounds from family abuse, stepping into unmet needs and exploiting lessons already learned about intimacy being tied to exploitation. Statistics reveal that 90% of abusers are known to their victims with only 10% being strangers, and 31% of traffickers are actually family members of the victim, making "stranger danger" education insufficient. Grooming is a process of control and manipulation that builds trust, chips away boundaries, and creates dependency so victims willingly comply when lines are crossed into inappropriate behavior because they've been normalized to the perpetrator's actions. Training is essential for leaders, staff, pastors, volunteers, and teachers to recognize grooming signs like expensive gift-giving, requests for secrecy, and isolating language such as "your parents don't understand you, but I do." Clear boundaries and policies are crucial, including no one-on-one supervision between adults and children, with swift consequences when policies aren't followed to prevent grooming opportunities. Children need to be empowered to say no even to trusted adults, with parents and leaders respecting their boundaries and teaching them about "tricky people" rather than just strangers. Trauma-informed communities must stop asking "what's wrong with you?" and instead listen without judgment, sitting with broken people without requiring them to change or behave in prescribed ways to receive care. Parents should be vigilant about adults in their children's lives, knowing what interactions look like and requiring that any adult who wants to be friends with their child must be friends with the parent first. Breaking the cycle requires communities that believe victims, provide someone to stand up for those who can't yet stand up for themselves, and create new family structures when biological families fail to protect.

I am honored to connect with Mike Sapiro today. He is an ordained Zen Buddhist monk, poet, clinical psychologist, psychedelic psychotherapist, author, meditation teacher, and researcher, in addition to being a transformational coach for world-class musicians, athletes, veterans, scientists, authors, and playwrights. In our conversation, Mike talks about truth medicine and explains how trauma is a disconnection from the present moment, clarifying how the nervous system responds to chronic stress or trauma, and how midlife transitions can reactivate unhealed wounds. We explore how culture, ancestry, parenting, and epigenetics shape conditioning, and examine the roles of ego, psychedelics, and surrender in the healing process. We also discuss what it means to lead with the heart, integrity, and humility, and tackle the emotional weight of regret, remorse, and shame. Mike also recommends some simple yet powerful daily practices to help us heal. This conversation with Mike Sapiro is truly invaluable. I loved his book, Truth Medicine, and I know the wisdom in both the book and this episode will resonate deeply with many of you. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: The healing benefits of framing trauma as a disconnection from the present moment Understanding and addressing the causes of undesirable behaviors, and addressing the hurt and conditioning that drive them How chronic stress and trauma impact the nervous system How societal pressures and constant connectivity contribute to stress and a sense of disconnection The value of psychedelics for accessing new perspectives and insights How midlife transitions can reactivate unhealed wounds The benefit of involving the heart, psyche, and cosmos in the therapeutic process Why trusting, letting go, and surrendering are essential for psychedelic therapy  How integrity and humility can lead to profound healing and transformation within the therapeutic process Mike shares some small, consistent actions that can help build trust and self-care  Bio: Michael Ryoshin Sapiro, PsyD, is an ordained Zen Buddhist monk and poet, clinical psychologist, psychedelic psychotherapist, author, meditation teacher, and researcher.
