In this episode of Psychobabble, we’re breaking down one of the most misunderstood topics in modern therapy: the victim mindset.
Joe sits down with psychologist and bestselling author Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman to unpack the psychology of victimhood and the mental health labels that can quietly hold people back.
Dr. Kaufman shares powerful insights from his new book Rise Above, and the two discuss:
- Why “trauma-informed” therapy isn’t always helpful
- The potential connection between trauma and identity politics
- The difference between emotional validation and emotional regulation
- What vulnerable narcissism looks like
- Why therapists need to believe in transformation, not just affirm your pain
Whether you're a therapist, a client, or both, this raw conversation will offer tools for emotional resilience.
