  • Whilst I have to admit releasing a forensic psychology book about terrorism might seem weird in December but I haven’t thought about it. Yet whenever we see news about a terrorist attack, we always wonder why something would commit such a horrible attack but we wonder what makes a terrorist as well. Is a mental health condition? Is it biological in nature? Are there social or cultural factors at play? And does society make someone a terrorist or not? We need to know the answer. Therefore, in this criminal psychology podcast episode, you’ll learn about the large range of factors that can make someone into a terrorist. If you enjoy learning about the psychology of crime, terrorism and more then this will be great episode for you.

    In the psychology news section, you'll about whether people did perceive the invisible gorilla after all, why it's worth embracing uncertainty, and coping together, staying together.

Yet ultimately, I love this psychology podcast because of all of you wonderful listeners, especially when you share and review the podcast and buy me books. I am really grateful for every single one of you so in this psychology podcast episode, I wanted to reflect on the lessons I’ve learnt in the course of doing this podcast.

  • In biological psychology, there is one of my favourite topics in psychology. It might not be related to clinical psychology, mental health or even forensic psychology, but I love it anyway. Psychophysics is a fascinating area of psychology that has always grabbed my attention and made me want to understand more about how a physical stimulus leads to a psychological experience. For example, how does physical stimuli of chocolate create a chocolate taste in our minds, and how does chocolate create the psychological experience of pleasure. These are some of the questions that psychophysics aims to answer. In this biological psychology podcast episode, you'll learn what is psychophysics, what does psychophysics cover and what might the future of psychophysics be. If you enjoy learning about physiological psychology, biopsychology and how our physical environment impacts our psychological processes then this will be a brilliant episode for you.

    In the psychology news section, you'll learn about how recalling old parties might lead to more moderate drinking, how a new government report advises a mental health approach over counter-terrorism for incels, and how the framing effect impacts therapy.

  • Please subscribe to the channel so you don't miss any new episodes.As we saw in How Can Therapists and Parents Support Transgender Teenagers? There are high rates of suicide, self-harm and depression in transgender youth. One of the ways to decrease these awful mental health outcomes is medical transitioning, where transgender youth transition from the gender they were assigned at birth to their affirmed gender by developing the characterised physical features of their affirmed gender. An effective way of medical transitioning is by Hormone Replacement Therapy because masculine hormones can make fat move away from the hips and thighs and deepen the voice. Whereas feminine hormones can make body fat move towards the hips and thighs and lead to the development of breasts. However, Hormone Replacement Therapy focuses on physical benefits for transgender youth, and yet this is a psychology podcast and I am a firm believer in the biopsychosocial model. Therefore, in this biological psychology podcast episode, we’re going to be investigating the psychological benefits of Hormone Replacement Therapy on transgender youth. This is going to be a lot of fun. If you enjoy learning about how hormones affect our behaviour, mental health and self-image, then you’ll love today’s episode.LISTEN NOW!Please subscribe to the channel so you don't miss any new episodes.If you want to learn more, please check out:FREE AND EXCLUSIVE 8 PSYCHOLOGY BOOK BOXSET- https://www.subscribepage.io/psychologyboxsetForensic Psychology- https://www.connorwhiteley.net/forensicpsychology Available from all major eBook retailers and you can order the paperback and hardback copies from Amazon, your local bookstore and local library, if you request it.

  • Throughout my clinical psychology education, there have been multiple times when a lecturer, an academic resource or a paper has mentioned that clinical cutoffs aren’t the best and they are problematic.

I wanted to change this, not only for my own education but so I can educate others have the pros and cons of the cutoffs.

  • When it comes to clinical psychology, it is a very white, female, middle-class professional and I’ve spoken and written about the various reasons why this is the case and why this needs to change urgently. Diversity will always be critical within clinical psychology and related mental health professions, but a major reason why clinical psychology isn’t that diverse is because of barriers to the profession. For different groups of people, even including white men, there are different barriers that can limit access to the clinical psychology profession, but this doesn’t mean that all barriers are the same height. Therefore, in this psychology podcast episode, you’ll learn what these barriers are, why they aren’t always the same height and what we can do as profession to help flatten and hopefully outright eliminate some of these barriers. If you enjoy learning about careers in psychology, mental health professions and more then this is a great episode for you.

  • As we come to the end of Suicide Awareness Month and as I continue to struggle with my own mental health, including suicidal ideation at times. I wanted to do at least one podcast episode focusing on suicide in an effort to help support others. Therefore, about a week ago when I was suicidal and crying a lot, my best friend mentioned how suicide happens in clusters (at times) and if I killed myself then I would transfer all my pain to them. Now partly my best friend was saying that because one of my whole reasons to stay alive is so I don’t hurt them. However, it got me thinking about how suicides can create ripples in social communities and in groups, and schools are a great example of the damaging impact of these ripples. As a result, in this clinical psychology episode, you’ll learn why suicides need to be supported after suicide loss, how can schools support students after suicide loss and how we can create a more supportive school environment. If you enjoy learning about suicide, mental health and suicide postvention then this is a great episode for you.

  • As aspiring and qualified psychologists and people interested in psychology, we read, listen and learn a lot of content about different mental health conditions. Yet as great as academic content is for helping us understanding a mental health condition, depression and anxiety, it is only lived experience that can possibly help us to truly understand what a condition is like for a client or service user. You can read as many academic papers on depression as you want but until you talk or listen to people who have or are currently experiencing depression then you will never be able to fully understand how depression impacts a person. Especially in their everyday life. Therefore, in this clinical psychology podcast episode, I’ll be talking about my experience of a major depressive episode, which is still on-going as I finish off this blog post. You’ll learn about how it’s impacting me, what triggered my depression, the challenges depression gives me and more. If you enjoy learning about mental health, lived experience and depression then this is going to be a great episode for you.
