Ep 31: The Dark Evolution Of Therapy From Healing To Enabling with Dr. Hannah Spier

Is modern therapy still about healing, or has it become a tool for ideological conformity?

Psychiatrist Dr. Hannah Spier joins me to explore how postmodern ideas, gender ideology, and the self-esteem movement have reshaped psychology - often at the expense of truth and resilience.

Are affirmations and self-love really helping people, or are they making us more fragile? Why are therapists pressured to conform to certain narratives rather than focus on scientific objectivity?

In this eye-opening conversation, Dr. Spier unpacks how the replication crisis has eroded trust in psychological research, why trauma is increasingly mis defined, and how social media amplifies harmful psychological trends.

We also discuss the ethical dilemmas surrounding assisted suicide, the role of the American Psychological Association in shaping discourse, and the consequences for psychologists who refuse to follow prevailing ideological trends.

Is it finally a time to return to objective psychological truths—before it’s too late?
