Finding Our Minds
Finding Our Minds is a podcast about having mind, knowing mind, and changing mind hosted by Dr. Margaret Arnd-Caddigan (she/her) & Léa Fae Caddigan (they/he/she/fae/faer). Season 4 is all about holistic psychotherapy from a post materialist perspective. We talk to practicing licensed therapists throughout this season to hear their perspective on the concept of mind, consciousness, soul, and spirit, and its place in therapeutic practice.
Finding Our Minds
Character
Write to us, we want to hear from you!
Our final installment of discussing identity, personality, and character, Dr. Arnd-Caddigan discusses what makes up one's character. She goes on to review personal ethics in the context of forming identity and character, and how this relates to treating mental suffering in the therapeutic context.
