quote

Read what our listeners are saying

"I am so very grateful for your recent videos on youtube- the information and insight you give is fascinating and transformative."

"Listening to your podcasts has helped me to understand some problems within ME and my own personality. For example, I was listening to your recent episode on anger, hatred, and rage when I realized that I myself am plagued with symptoms of hate and rage. For some reason I'm able to take your approach and be open-minded about applying the concepts to my own behaviors that match your descriptions as well as applying them to what I see in my husband's."

"You're being so helpful to me; thank you! I took your questions and went back through my journal & wrote out the answers to your questions pertaining to specific conflicts, and that is helping me …."

"Dr. Mazzella, you are a rare gem of a psychotherapist. You are one of very few authentic professionals on YouTube who isn't afraid to tell it like it is ..."

"Your balanced perspectives are exactly what people need to hear, so they can open their minds and challenge their thoughts, strong beliefs, perspectives, and actions."

"Your content is so valuable to me and others. I've shared your YT channel to 2 friends so far that I think would benefit. …Honestly, I think everyone could benefit from your extensive knowledge on these issues!"

Depression is a prevalent mental health condition. In order to understand the causes of depression, it is important to consider the subtypes or variations of the disorder. A case study of a young woman suffering from depression provides insight into the psychological mechanisms underlying the condition. One distinct variation of major depressive disorder involves feelings of worthlessness, hopelessness, helplessness, and deprivation. This subtype is often triggered by a discrepancy between the ideal and actual self, leading to a plunge in self-esteem. Understanding and addressing these expectations is crucial in working with this type of depression.

What Causes Depression: Self-Esteem Regulation

The Narcissism Decoder March 31, 2024 2:04 pm

One key element that's frequently missed when discussing narcissism is self-other differentiation. This idea is critical, but it presents itself in such a subtle way that it oftentimes goes undetected and therefore unaddressed. Self-other differentiation refers to the capacity to appreciate the thoughts, feelings, or beliefs of another person when they are opposed to your own. This capacity is often challenged in conflicts and can lead to deficiencies in relating and a desire to maintain the illusion of oneness. There are two paths to address differences: denying them or embracing them. The goal is to develop a tolerance for difference and mutual respect for autonomy.
