In the wake of recent social media shaming against Amy Schumer for doing a stand up set two weeks after giving birth, Dr. Kim Sage (Clinical Psychologist #29089), explores what “bad or toxic mothering,” really looks like, and how this type of mothering can be traumatic and deeply wounding.

Hint: Choosing to breastfeed or not, making your own baby food, or whether you work or not, has NOTHING to do with being a great mother.

What is Toxic Mothering?   Were you raised by a toxic mother?

If you struggle with shame, fears of vulnerability or a lack of trust in others, body or eating issues, anxiety and/or depression, or all of the above, (among other struggles), and you had a mom who made you feel you were never good enough, raged or blamed you, criticized or competed with you, or even humiliated you, disrespected your boundaries or name called you, it’s very likely you were raised by a toxic mother.

While your childhood may be over, the lingering effects of a toxic mother can leave deep, and difficult to heal wounds. 

You are worthy, and you are worthy of love and healing.  

Find out why it’s so important that you get help if you were raised by a toxic mother.

Dr. Kim Sage, Clinical Psychologist, welcomes her guest, fellow Clinical Psychologist, Dr. Edward Margines, who explains the emerging trends and research around using psychedelics with psychotherapy, and why they might work together to help patients suffering with PTSD, and other mental health challenges.

What are psychedelics and how might they impact the treatment of mental health issues, such as PTSD or treatment-resistant depression?

Given the recent passing of legislation for the use of psilocybin in Denver, Colorado, as well as the often exploitative headlines around psychedelics use, Dr. Margines joins the show this week to break down these headlines, and explain why they are trending topics in psychology, and what they mean for the world of mental health treatment.

The serious risks and realities of using psychedelics are thoroughly discussed, and their uses are absolutely not encouraged, but rather the topic is explained and explored, as part of a greater dialogue around emerging mental health treatments.
