The Strangers — Engagement Nightmare Story w/ Shannon Knight, LMHC, LPC

In this episode, I chat with Psychotherapist Shannon Knight from the podcast The Tarot Diagnosis about The Strangers (2008) and how the movie portrays nightmares as an emotional processing function when life does not go according to plan. We also pull some tarot cards to try and make sense of what the hell is going on in this relationship between James and Kristen. Mental Health is Horrifying is hosted by Candis Green, Registered Psychotherapist and owner of Many Moons Therapy...............................................................Show Notes:About Shannon KnightShannon Knight is a Johns Hopkins-trained psychotherapist and the host of top-ranking podcast The Tarot Diagnosis, where she explores the intersection of tarot and mental health.She is also the creator of The Symposium, an online community where tarot and psychology enthusiasts gather to deepen their tarot practice and the author of Tarot & Self-Discovery, a collection of mental health-inspired tarot spreads; The Year of The Hermit, a guided year-long journal; and the forthcoming book Dark Shadow, Golden Shadow, which explores shadow work through the lens of tarot.In addition to her writing and podcasting, Shannon is hosting The Summer Solstice Summit - a virtual tarot conference that brings together 15 tarot and astrology experts for a weekend of witchy wisdom, insight, and connection June 20th-22nd.
