FMP 060 • Addiction & Precontemplation – Screening and Basic Approaches To Care

December 4, 2021 By Jerod Killick, M.S.

Supporting someone in precontemplation

It is difficult to know what to do when someone is stuck in precontemplation. While we often blame the individual using substances for their persistent denial of the impact their use has on their life, we also find ourselves trapped in their apparent lack of commitment to change.

FMP 059 • Psychodynamics and Psychoanalysis – Relevance in Health Psychology

November 27, 2021 By Jerod Killick, M.S.

A look at Freud's theory as it relates to Health Psychology.

Freud’s Psychoanalytic theory and the field of Health Psychology have one thing in common – Both approaches seek to help individuals, ‘feel better’. We typically associated Health Psychology and Behavioural Medicine within the context of cognition and behaviour.

FMP 058 • Five Disturbing Health Trends You Should Avoid

November 13, 2021 By Jerod Killick, M.S.

Avoid these five disturbing health trends

Everyone is looking for a hack to wellness. In reality, the turtle wins the race when it comes to improved physical and emotional wellbeing. In today’s episode, I review five dangerous health trends, many promoted on TikTok to youth.

FMP 057 • You Asked, We Answer – Your Health Psychology Q&A

November 6, 2021 By Jerod Killick, M.S.

Special episode where we answer your questions about health psychology.

Over the past three years, we received dozens of questions from our listeners. In this special episode, we sifted through the most relevant and interesting queries and answer each from a place of thoughtfulness and authenticity.

FMP 056 • My Vegan Choice – Raising The Bar On The Vegan Community

October 31, 2021 By Jerod Killick, M.S.

Making the vegan choice is life changing

Living a vegan lifestyle is a journey, not an endpoint. I discuss my own circuitous path living as a vegan, the bumps along the way, and the lessons I have learned. My vegan choice started over a decade ago. Over the years, my adherence has not been perfect.

FMP 055 • Controversial & Dangerous Treatments For Mental Illness – A Dark History

October 23, 2021 By Jerod Killick, M.S.

Controversial treatments for the mentally ill.

Based on listener feedback, today, I review the dark history of treatments for mental illness. In my review, I highlight the most astonishing practices – Who knows how well intentioned these actors were. Nevertheless, treatments such as blood letting, insulin shock therapy, and lobotomy were anything but humane.

FMP 054 • Grounding Exercises For Acute Anxiety (Trauma & Cognitive Psychology)

October 17, 2021 By Jerod Killick, M.S.

Running is great as a grounding exercise

A listener reached out inquiring about managing moments of acute anxiety and feeling overwhelmed at work. Today, we discuss the power of “Grounding,” an approach that interrupts the mental and physiological response to anxiety.

FMP 053 • You Are Evolving – Post-Covid Professional and Personal Growth Insights

September 25, 2021 By Jerod Killick, M.S.

In the end it is all about personal growth.

In today’s episode, I walk through a series of insights on professional and personal growth as part of my Autumn period of self-reflection. I challenge the idea that our work and home life should be considered separate. I also consider the importance of being comfortable with who you are and your accomplishments as a part of emotional wellbeing.

FMP 052 • Perfectionism is Ruining Your Life (Observations and Solutions)

September 25, 2021 By Jerod Killick, M.S.

defeating perfectionism

In a previous article on Finding My Psych, we explored the application of the Triple Column Technique on addressing perfectionism. Today, in this solo episode, I addressed my own experience with perfectionism and provide some suggestions for containment.

FMP 051 • Promoting Hope Over Impending Doom – Light Your Own Way

August 14, 2021 By Jerod Killick, M.S.

A candle and promoting hope

I review recent thoughts on the pervasive hopelessness invading our culture. After stumbling onto a recent reflection by Rich Roll, I couldn’t help but be impacted by his persistent hope promoting approach found in his work as a content creator, athlete, and human being.
