Ep 19 - Unconditional Love and Identity Theft: Jamie Beth Cohen on Her Dad (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A lot of us end up spending a significant part of our adult lives unpacking our childhoods. We obviously do a lot of that in therapy, for ourselves and the parents we work with. Some, like our guest, use their creative work as part of processing their past. Today, we’re talking with Rob’s lifelong friend, author Jamie Beth Cohen. In our conversation, we revisit Jamie and Rob’s coming of age on the East Coast in the 80s and 90s, and do some speculating on what it’s like to be a kid these days. We
Ep 18 - Dad's Performance Review: Teddy Galligan on What Worked and What Didn't (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Every parent has moments when they look at their kid and wonder, “Are they gonna be okay when they head out into the world?” In the day to day struggles that come up with school, homework, activities, chores, siblings, we can lose sight of the big picture. Which makes it all the more delightful when you get to have conversations with your kid that make you realize that yeah, they’re going to be fine. Today’s episode is the result of one of those conversations. We’re joined by Rob’s son, Teddy, w
Ep 17 - Healthy Disappointment: What It Is and Why It Matters (opens the original)
Read excerpt
At its most distilled, disappointment is just noticing a negative difference between what we expected and what actually happened. It’s a moment for recalibrating our expectations and learning from an experience. Of course, we throw a lot of other feelings and experiences into the mix along with that gap, and that’s especially true when expectation and reality involves our kids. In this episode, we theorize about the purpose of disappointment, how it gets twisted up with how we were parented, and
Ep 16 - Healing in Real Time: Lucy Bichsel on Bringing Parents Into the Room (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There are deep biases embedded in the literature and therapist training for how therapy is supposed to be done. Some of those norms have evolved and some of the rules still feel very rigid. Old school rules say that an adult who is working on issues from their childhood might talk about their mother every week for five years, but a therapist would never suggest the client bring their mom to a session. But if both the adult child and parent are willing, why couldn’t we do things differently? Toda
Ep 15 - Grief, Relief, and Time to Reflect: The Gift of Endings (opens the original)
Read excerpt
June is a time of transition for a lot of families. The end of the school year, graduations from one phase of schooling to the next –– endings and beginnings have a way of surfacing the feels. And no one likes to process endings more than psychoanalysts. So as we’re at the end of the school year, and Rob has a child who just graduated high school — how?! –– we decided to spend some time today talking about endings. Rob shares some wisdom from his son’s head of school, Gillian talks about navigat
