Kristin: Sibling loss in early life

Kristin: Sibling loss in early life

Author: CBC May 25, 2021 Duration: 29:12
Kristin’s brother died when she was very young and she blamed herself, the way children sometimes do. She has carried that unresolved shame for decades. As the anniversary of his death stirs up hard feelings, Dr. Hillary helps Kristin begin to heal this deep wound. She also guides adult Kristin, now a parent herself, toward saying the words she needed to hear as a child.

There’s a unique intimacy in hearing someone else’s most private conversations, especially when they occur in a therapist’s office. Other People’s Problems, from CBC, removes that fourth wall entirely, inviting you into real, unscripted therapy sessions. This season, psychologist Dr. Hillary McBride focuses on a particularly profound frontier in mental health: the use of psychedelics in a controlled therapeutic setting. You’ll hear Dr. Hillary’s expert guidance as she supports clients through drug-assisted therapy, navigating deep-seated trauma and emotional blockages. The conversations are raw, vulnerable, and often surprising, capturing moments of breakthrough and introspection as they happen. It’s not just about the substances; it’s about the structured, compassionate process that facilitates healing. This podcast provides a rare look at how alternative therapeutic approaches can unlock new pathways for understanding and recovery. By listening, you gain a profound appreciation for the complexity of the human psyche and the courageous work of facing one’s own pain. Each episode is a journey into someone’s personal world, handled with remarkable care and clinical insight, making for compelling and deeply human audio.
