31 OCT 2025 · In this episode, Dr. David Puder and Dr. Brandon Luu explore the science of sleep deprivation. How missing sleep impacts your brain, metabolism, emotions, and long-term health. Discover evidence-based strategies that can help you protect cognitive performance and recover from sleep loss, including exercise, creatine, caffeine, and bright light therapy. We'll discuss studies showing how even short bouts of high-intensity interval training (HIIT), proper creatine dosing, and morning light exposure can reverse many of the damaging effects of sleep restriction. https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/cme-program https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/psychiatry-psychotherapy-podcast/episode-251-combatting-the-negative-effects-of-sleep-deprivation https://youtu.be/WPbIGywn-MI
24 OCT 2025 · In this episode, Dr. David Puder is joined by world-renowned psychologist Diana Diamond, PhD to explore devaluation, narcissism, attachment, and transference in psychotherapy. Together they examine why patients with narcissistic personality traits or narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) often devalue their therapists, how dismissing and disorganized attachment styles shape treatment, and why these cycles can be so painful for clinicians. Dr. Diamond shares clinical insights from Transference-Focused Psychotherapy (TFP), including how to recognize subtle and overt devaluation, how to hold boundaries, how to think psychodynamically about these behaviors, and how to respond without reenacting the patient’s internal object relations. The discussion also highlights the role of trauma, reflective functioning, countertransference, and the deeper tragedy of pathological narcissism. https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/cme-program https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/psychiatry-psychotherapy-podcast/episode-250-devaluation-transference-narcissism-with-diana-diamond https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oy-2eDCZaQY
17 OCT 2025 · In this episode, we explore how intergenerational trauma shapes attachment patterns and how reflective function (RF) and mentalization can help break the cycle. Drawing on research from Fonagy, Slade, and Berthelot, we examine how trauma-specific reflective functioning influences disorganized attachment and how therapies such as Mentalization-Based Therapy (MBT), Transference-Focused Psychotherapy (TFP), and Minding the Baby (MTB) strengthen reflective capacity and promote secure attachment. Join Dr. David Puder and colleagues as they discuss the science of mentalization, attachment repair, and trauma healing, bringing together psychoanalytic, developmental, and biological perspectives to offer hope and clinical insight for patients, parents, and therapists alike. https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/cme-program https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/psychiatry-psychotherapy-podcast/episode-249-intergenerational-trauma-reflective-function-mentalization-attachment-healing
26 SEP 2025 · In this episode, Dr. David Puder is joined by OCD specialist Kevin Foss to dive deep into Real Event OCD, which is a form of obsessive-compulsive disorder where real past experiences become the focus of endless rumination, guilt, and shame. Together, they unpack the symptoms, real-life examples, and how this subtype differs from PTSD, moral injury, and other forms of OCD. The discussion highlights evidence-based treatments like Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and medication options, while also offering guidance for loved ones supporting someone with OCD.
16 SEP 2025 · In this episode, Dr. David Puder and Mark Ruffalo dive into the history and theory of identity diffusion, from Kernberg’s structural model and Gunderson’s work on BPD to Akhtar’s clinical descriptions. We explore how identity diffusion shows up in patients’ lived experiences—feelings of emptiness, fractured self-image, lack of authenticity—and what these struggles mean for psychotherapy. You’ll also hear practical insights into treatment, including empathetic confrontation, fostering continuity of self, and amplifying moments of authenticity. Whether you’re a clinician, student, or simply curious about the complexities of identity, this conversation sheds light on one of the most important yet misunderstood dimensions of mental health.  https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/cme-program https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/psychiatry-psychotherapy-podcast/episode-247-identity-diffusion-borderline-personality-organization
29 AUG 2025 · In this episode, we explore the latest 2025 research on cannabis and mental health. Our discussion covers how cannabis use impacts depression, anxiety, PTSD, sleep, cognitive function, and cannabis use disorder (CUD). While many patients report short-term relief from symptoms, studies reveal complex risks, including increased odds of mood disorders, suicidality, impaired cognition, and withdrawal challenges. We also examine the evidence behind medical marijuana for PTSD and anxiety, the role of CBD and terpenes, and the long-term effects of cannabis on brain development, academic performance, and overall health. Whether you are a clinician, researcher, or someone curious about cannabis and psychiatry, this update will help you better understand the science, myths, and clinical realities of cannabis use. https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/cme-program https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/psychiatry-psychotherapy-podcast/episode-246-cannabis-and-depression-anxiety-ptsd-sleep-and-cognitive-function-update-and-review https://youtu.be/lnbindCcQbM
18 AUG 2025 · Parenting brings love, joy and plenty of emotional challenges. In this episode, clinical psychologist Dr. Alissa Jerud explores how parents can better understand and regulate their emotions instead of getting stuck in cycles of frustration, anxiety, or control. Drawing on exposure therapy, DBT skills, and her Emotion-Savvy Parenting approach, Dr. Jerud introduces practical tools: the ART framework (Accept, Regulate, Tolerate) to help parents stay grounded during emotional storms. Whether it’s managing anxiety, tolerating distress, or responding more calmly to your kids, this conversation is full of evidence-based strategies for building resilience, deepening connection, and showing up as the parent you want to be.

25 JUL 2025 · In this episode, I engage in a shared-interest conversation with Dr. David Mintz, a psychiatrist with over 30 years of experience at the Austen Riggs Center, about his book Psychodynamic Psychopharmacology: Caring for the Treatment-Resistant Patient. Mintz explores the integration of psychodynamic principles into medication prescribing, emphasizing that psychiatric treatments are not purely biomedical but profoundly shaped by meaning, symbolism, attachment and interpersonal dynamics. Drawing from his work with treatment-resistant patients, often those with histories of early adversity, the discussion distills how psychodynamics influence medication efficacy, adherence, and overall recovery. https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/cme-program https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/psychiatry-psychotherapy-podcast/episode-244-psychodynamic-psychopharmacology-david-mintz https://youtu.be/kqRlbzU3ukw

13 SEP 2024 · In this episode, we explore the innovative work of Dr. Paul L. Wachtel, a leading psychologist known for his integrative approach to psychotherapy. Dr. Wachtel challenges single-framework therapy models, advocating for a flexible approach that draws from cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, humanistic, and other modalities. We discuss his concept of the "disavowed self"—the parts of oneself that are unconsciously denied—and how therapists can help clients reclaim these aspects to foster growth. We also dive into how attachment theory and integrative methods can be used to treat anxiety, phobias, and interpersonal issues, providing practical insights for both therapists and those interested in understanding human behavior more deeply. Join us for an engaging conversation on advancing therapeutic practices. https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/cme-program https://www.psychiatrypodcast.com/psychiatry-psychotherapy-podcast/episode-222-disavowed-emotions-with-paul-wachtel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SloGQ88Bi6E&t=4s
