    I could listen to her all day. She's warm, interesting, empathic, emotionally intelligent, broadly educated on personality psychopathology and mental illness, insightful and had depth of thought, and she has a wonderfully genuine laugh. Watching this was an amazing hit of dopamine just to know there are clincians in the world like her.
    My god, if you're going to train AI on how to be an empathic, kind, sincerely helpful clincian please, please, please let the AI algorithm learn from her.

    She’s a genius. I love her. She somehow understands psychology to a level I can’t understand. I’m a schizoid, it sucks. Yet she has made us feel welcome.

      listening to her I find her slightly intimidating except for the way she speaks. Her knowledge is so apparent and powerfully so. I feel she'd diagnose while watching people on a bus for instance and be close to completely accurate! Just mind blowing.

      I’m a schizoid as well it doesn’t suck at all fam lol. U just got to focus on “who you really are” instead of asking yourself “what is wrong with me?”. Since i made this decision im like, i don’t like this, i don’t wanna talk to this person, it is ok that im alone sometimes. Others can suck it up, oh yeah!

    what a brilliant human being . It melts my heart her wisdom. Her way of putting all this topics out is fascinating and highly empathetic and deep. It's an honor to be able to learn from someone like this wonderful woman.

    Wow, that was the most extraordinary interview of a therapist, IMO. She seemed to be so comfortable to just let things flow. So easy to follow her authentic style of organizing her thoughts. I didn’t want it to end! This could probably be integrated into a psych schools curriculum. Thank you 👍💪😃

    Brilliant video, a superb overview of the PDM clinical approach that's very useful for beginning psychotherapists from one of the best experts in psychodynamic therapy. Most enjoyable, especially as Nancy McWilliams is so authentic and generous in her didactic style.

    Thank-you Elliot, for directing and producing such a natural and accessible film. Together, you’ve created an atmosphere that I feel I’m in the room with Dr McWilliams, a master therapist who embodies her work - teaching the complexity of the psychodynamic diagnostic process through knitting ideas, experience and theory into a fabric that I can admire, appreciate and hold onto.

      My guess is that most of us experience mixed personalities. Bits and pieces of many, unless we are more severely disturbed. (I'm guessing, please think it out for yourself.)

  • @rukhsanamirza4679
    @rukhsanamirza4679 Před 3 měsíci +2

    you want to understand human psychology than listen to her especially if you are a psychotherapist. she makes personality so relevant in all aspects of human interactions. I am a psychiatrist but have shared her knowledge with my family members who are internists as they need to understand the psyche of the patients they treat to help them deal better with the medical issues.

  • @ah013gobyebye
    @ah013gobyebye Před 4 měsíci +9

    Absolutely brilliant. Thank you for making these videos.
    Besides all of the erudition, I love her use of the word 'crazy'. To me, it normalizes and destigmatizes the experience of being and acting 'crazy' and acknowledges it as real and part and parcel of being human.

    What about the neurotic, who grew up within an authoritarian Christian family? Oh, I get it. On the spectrum of psychopathy, I'm was in the low range. This presentation was wonderful and very informative. As I listened I could only wonder about the 1000s of patients she helped over the years, and who also gave her her experience and the deep knowledge base she has.
