  1. Orna Guralnik (Couples Therapy)

    05/30/2024

    Orna Guralnik (Couples Therapy)

    Orna Guralnik (Couples Therapy) is a clinical psychologist and therapist. Orna joins the Armchair Expert to discuss why therapists often keep details of their private lives from their patients, why she felt like she had to code switch when talking to different groups of people, and how psychoanalysis differs from other forms of therapy. Orna and Dax discuss what systems thinking is, what being in a relationship with someone with dissociation is like, and the relational dynamics of the younger generation. Orna explains why she still has optimistic view of the world, how a person's perception of someone can change when you know their story, and how her work affects her own personal relationships.

Our second caller is nervous because her long-term boyfriend is meeting her Christian missionary parents for the first time. Our caller's faith is still important to her, but she doesn't want to disappoint her parents due to her boyfriend's lack of religion. Our final caller is wondering how to tell her parents that she doesn't want to have kids and that her husband is getting a vasectomy. She already feels bad about moving to another country, and previous attempts have not ended well. Season 4 of COUPLES THERAPY premieres May 31 on Paramount+ with SHOWTIME.

    Ep. - 189 - I LOVE YOU, NOW DIE AND COUPLES THERAPY REVIEW

    I Love You, Now Die: The Commonwealth Vs. Michelle Carter is a 2019 two-part documentary film, directed by Erin Lee Carr, and produced by Andrew Rossi. In July 2014, 18-year-old Conrad Roy died by suicide in his car at a parking lot in Fairhaven, Mass. Police soon discovered a series of alarming text messages from his girlfriend, 17-year-old Michelle Carter, that seemed to encourage him to kill himself. This discovery sparked sensational headlines nationwide, leading to a trial that raised difficult questions about technology, social media and mental health, while asking if one person can be held responsible for the suicide of another. Jerry Weichman, a clinical psychologist and adolescent specialist as well as an author, speaker and parenting expert provides commentary and insight.  Producer David Eitel reviews Couples Therapy on Showtime, which unlocks a hidden world: other people’s relationships. The show brings viewers into the visceral experience of weekly therapy with four couples and their world-class therapist Dr. Orna Guralnik.  Reality Life with Kate Casey  Patron: http://www.patreon.com/katecasey Cameo: https://www.cameo.com/katecasey Twitter: @katecasey Instagram: @katecaseyca Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/113157919338245/ Facebook.com/loveandknuckles Amazon List: http://www.amazon.com/shop/katecaseyca  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
