Cultivating Profound Fearlessness
Buddhism says that humans must be fearless to live in a world often ruled by ignorance and afflictive emotions. This episode explicates a type of fearlessness borne from wise view, wise intention, non-referential compassion, and wise action. This fearlessness is critical for any Buddhist practitioner engaged in resistance and protest to protect our democracy from autocrats and would-be dictators.Join the conversation on the Integrative Psychotherapy Substack.

Co-creating An Intentional Ending
Because psychotherapy is mostly a relational undertaking ending psychotherapy well is very important. I am a big fan of intentional endings.

Emptiness and Identity Confusion
This episode explores two fundamental Buddhist psychological concepts—emptiness and identity confusion. While most clinicians think emptiness is ‘feeling empty’, it is actually a profound doorway to radically understand self and world as it truly is. Surprisingly, the Buddha had a lot to say about identity and identity confusion and often pointed out how human minds fixate on identity in ways that largely serve to separate us from each other.Join the conversation on the Integrative Psychotherapy Substack.

Activist Buddhist Psychology
Lisa invites clinicians to join her on the activist side of Buddhist psychology. Western psychotherapy has never been big on collective healing. A large methodological defect left unaddressed for a century or more. The frightening changes happening around the world demand psychotherapists renounce complacency, convention, denial and cowardice, and commit to sustained social activism. This deluded world needs us to become warriors for clarity, tolerance, and collective care. To devote our work to rooting out delusion wherever it arises and fearlessly light the lamp of non-suffering in a world of dark, intense suffering.Join the conversation on the Integrative Psychotherapy Substack.

The End of Doubt
This episode employs Buddhist psychology to explore doubt and its archrival, discerning wisdom. The Buddha conceptualized doubt as one of five mental hindrances and discerning wisdom as the realization of suchness, actuality devoid of all doubt.Here is the link to read Lisa’s chapter on negative self-cherishing.

Being Skillful
Four days into Trump 2.0 none of his folly and chaos is surprising. On the other hand, watching America’s democracy morph into an autocratic oligarchy is horrifying and deeply disturbing. This episode is a wakeup call to every American. Lisa describes a path for being skillful in the midst of unskillfulness. That path requires letting go of hope and fear, and instead, acting ethically, compassionately, and wisely as best we are able. Doing so will make a huge difference in a country where such values are quickly fading away.Join the conversation on the Integrative Psychotherapy Substack.
