EP168 Collisions Of Childhoods | Bill Saunders

Holy snapping ducksh*t...   If there was one sentence lingering in my mind at the end of the conversation you're about to listen to, that's it. My guest is Clinical Psychologist and Author, Dr Bill Saunders. Amidst his decades of experience,  here are some of the feathers in Bills cap. He has been a lecturer in psychological medicine at The University of Glasgow, a senior lecturer in Applied Social Studies, Director of Alcohol Studies at the University of Paisly, Scotland, Head of Addictions Studies at Curtain University, Perth, Professor of Psychology and head of the Clinical Psychology program at Curtain University..  in addition to all this and more he has consulted a wide range of agencies including the world health organisation and the united nations. Bill specialises in the management of adult psychopathology, addictive behaviours, the co-occurrence of both and the impact of childhood trauma on adult psychological functioning. In terms of what this episode covers…  I don’t quite know what to tell you aside from I should have damn well known where my propensity to wheel myself under the microscope might just end us up. We talk about Bills perspective of mental health and what's wrong with the 'what's wrong with you' method as opposed to the 'what happened' method.  We talk about trauma, mental health diagnostics, medicine, therapy and of course we blur the lines between podcast and one on one therapy as I slide myself under the microscope...
